(a)
Interpretation: All the stereogenic centers in the given compound are to be located.
Concept introduction: An atom or a group bearing four different atoms or groups which produces stereoisomers on interchange of any two groups are stereogenic centers.
(b)
Interpretation: The stereogenic centers due to carbon-carbon double bond in the given compound are to be located.
Concept introduction: An atom or a group bearing four different atoms or groups which produces stereoisomers on interchange of any two groups are stereogenic centers.
(c)
Interpretation: Maximum number of stereoisomers is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: An atom or a group bearing four different atoms or groups which produces stereoisomers on interchange of any two groups are stereogenic centers.
