(a)
Interpretation: The classification of the given pair of compounds as constitutional isomers, stereoisomers, or not isomers is to be done.
Concept introduction: Isomers are the compounds with similar formula and different structures. Stereoisomers are a type of isomers in which arrangement of atoms differ in space. Or the compounds that have same molecular formula but they differ in the arrangement of atoms or groups in the space are known as stereoisomers.
Constitutional isomers are having the same molecular formula and different bond connectivity between the atoms.

- Consider the attached tricyclic structure B. (a) Label each substituent on the rings as axial or equatorial. (b) Draw B using chair conformations for each sixmembered ring. (c) Label the atoms on the ring fusions (the carbons that join each set of two rings together) as cis or trans to each other.arrow_forwardLabel each pair of compounds as constitutional isomers, stereoisomers, or not isomers of each other.arrow_forwardDrawn are four isomeric dimethylcyclopropanes. a.How are the compounds in each pair related (enantiomers, diastereomers, constitutional isomers): A and B; A and C; B and C; C and D? b.Label each compound as chiral or achiral. c.Which compounds alone would be optically active? d.Which compounds have a plane of symmetry? e.How do the boiling points of the compounds in each pair compare: A and B; B and C; C and D? f.Which of the compounds are meso compounds? g.Would an equal mixture of compounds C and D be optically active? What about an equal mixture of B and C?arrow_forward
