Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic centers in the given compound are to be labeled.
Concept introduction: An atom containing four different atoms or groups produces stereoisomers on exchange of any two groups. These centers are known as stereogenic centers.
Answer to Problem 25.1P
The stereogenic centers in the given compound are shown in Figure 1.
Explanation of Solution
The stereogenic centers in the given compound are shown below.
Figure 1
The highlighted nitrogen atom possesses four different groups. Hence, this is a stereogenic center.
