Ans. Constitutional isomers. Sol. The first Fischer is CH 3 -CHOH-CHCl-CH 2 CH 3 (3-chloropentan-2-ol; OH next to a terminal CH 3 ) and the second is CH 3 CH 2 -CHOH-CHCl-CH 3 (2-chloropentan-3-ol; OH on the middle carbon). OH and Cl occupy different positions on the chain : constitutional (position) isomers.
