Interpretation:
The new relationships between molecules after modifying the positions of groups is to be examined.
Concept Introduction:
The molecules which are non-superimposable or not identical with their mirror images are known as chiral molecules.
A pair of two mirror images which are non-identical is known as enantiomers which are optically active.
The objects or molecules which are superimposable with their mirror images are achiral objects or molecules and these objects have a centre of symmetry or plane of symmetry.
The achiral compounds in which plane of symmetry is present internally and consists of chiral centres are known as meso compounds but they are optically inactive.
The stereoisomers which are non-superimposable on each other and not mirror images of each other are known as diastereomers.
Chiral molecules are capable of rotating plane polarized light
The molecules which are superimposable or identical with their mirror images are known as achiral molecules, and achiral molecules are not capable of rotating the plane-polarised light.
Plane of symmetry is the plane that bisects the molecule in two equal halves, such that they are mirror images of each other.
Compounds having plane of symmetry are usually achiral as they do not have different atoms around the central carbon atom.
The objects which are non-superimposable or not identical with its mirror image are known as chiral objects. The pair of two mirror images which are non-identical are known as enantiomers.
The objects which are superimposable with its mirror images are achiral objects and these objects have a centre of symmetry or plane of symmetry.

Explain your answers. (a) OH or (c) OH or HO (b) (CHN or A factor (in addition to polarity and hydrogen bonding) that affects the melting point of many organic compounds is the compactness and rigidity of their individual molecules. • Molecules that are symmetrical generally have abnormally high melting points. sert- Buryl alcohol, for example, has a much higher melting point than the other isomeric alcohols shown here: OH OH tert-Butyl alcohol (mp 25 "C) Butyl alcohol (mp -00 "C) Isobutyl alcohol sec-Butyl alcohol (mp 108 C) (mp-114 C) о оarrow_forward1.

- You came across an article debating the use of Prevacid® vs. Nexium®. While both drugs have the same therapeutic effect, one is sold as a racemate and the other is sold as a single enantiomer. Previous medications such as Thalidomide and Advair® have sparked a debate about the safety of drugs sold as a racemate. 3. What is an enantiomer? Give examplearrow_forward(15 points). For each pair of the following molecules, indicate whether its members are identical, structural (constitutional) isomers, conformers or stereoisomers. If they are stereoisomers, indicate whether they are enantiomers or diastereomers. If they are conformers, how would you describe the relation between conformations when they are maintained at a temperature too low to permit them to interconvert (Le., are they identical, enantiomers or diastereomers)?
