Chapter 5, Problem 5.2P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The classification of the given pair of compounds as constitutional isomers or stereoisomers 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.
