Organic Chemistry HW: CANNOT BE HAND DRAWN 2,6-dimethyloct-2-ene Provide a detailed typed explanation of Stereoisomers show the expanded structure of your molecule. Calculate the maximum number of possible stereoisomers of your molecule using the following formula: Maximum number of possible stereoisomers = 2n (where n= the number of chiral carbons in your molecule). This calculation does not include E- or Z- isomers for any compounds containing double bonds Type or using a computer program "draw" the possible stereoisomers of the molecule. Note that E-, Z- isomers of each stereoisomer are also possible and would not be accounted for by the formula above; draw any E- or Z- isomers.
