trans-3,6-Dimethylpiperazine-2,5-dione

structure

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Every atom of the trans isomer maps through the ring centre onto an identical atom (C=O onto C=O, NH onto NH, CH3 onto CH3, H onto H - the dashed diagonals). A centre of symmetry is present, so the trans isomer is achiral.
