Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The possible stereoisomeric products formed by the bromine addition of cis-2- butene are to be stated. The products formed in different and same amounts are to be identified.

Concept introduction:

A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as the chiral carbon atom. A stereocenter is a point where the exchange of any two groups generates a stereoisomer.

When two molecules consist of the same atoms which are linked in the same sequence, but the atoms are placed differently in space, then they are called the stereoisomers.
