For the following molecules: a. How many stereogenic centers are present? b. How many stereoisomers are possible for these molecules?
I'm a bit confused on enantiomers, diastereomers, and then a 180 flip meaning being "the same". I know enantiomers are mirror images that can't be placed one on top of the other. I also know diastereomers are non-mirror images. Then when diastereomers are flipped 180 degrees they can be considered "the same". Why couldn't that be said for enantiomers too when flipped 180 degrees? Thank you!
