(b)

Interpretation:

The enantiomeric compound of Xneeds to be determined.

Concept introduction:

In chemistry, enantiomers are two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The diastereomericcompound of Yneeds to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Diastereomers are compounds with same molecular formula, and also they should be non-mirror & non-identical stereoisomers.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

Thediastereomericcompound of Zneeds to be determined.

How To Find and Draw All Possible Stereoisomers for a Compound with Two Stereogenic Centers? Explain all steps ?
The following are representations of two forms of glucose. The six-membered ring is known to exist in a chair conformation in each form. Draw clear representations of the most stable conformation of each. Are they two different conformations of the same molecule, or are they stereoisomers that cannot be interconverted by rotation about single bonds? Which substituents (if any) occupy axial sites?
