Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic center in the given compound is to be located and its enantiomers are to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Enantiomers of a compound are the stereoisomers which are non-super imposable mirror images. A carbon atom bonded to four different groups is known as a chiral carbon. A compound which has a chiral carbon can be resolved into enantiomers. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
(b)
Interpretation: The stereogenic center in the given compound is to be located and its enantiomers are to be drawn.
