Match the following :
Column I (Compound) | Column II (Number of stereocenter) |
|---|---|
(A) | (P) 4 |
(B) | (Q) 1 |
(C) | (R) 3 |
(D) | (S) Shows G.I. |
Options:
Answer:
D
Solution:
Ans. A S; B P, S; C S; D R, S.
A (3-methylcyclopentan-1-ol): C1 (OH) and C3 (CH3) are stereocentres (2 - not listed); cis/trans pairs exist, so it shows geometrical isomerism : S.
B (2,3,5,6-tetramethylcyclohexan-1-one): C2, C3, C5 and C6 are stereocentres (4) and cis/trans diastereomeric pairs exist : P, S.
C (2-methylcyclohexan-1-ol): C1 and C2 are stereocentres (2 - not listed); cis/trans pairs exist : S.
D (1,2,3-tribromocyclohexane): C1, C2 and C3 are stereocentres (3) and cis/trans diastereomeric pairs exist : R, S.
