Chemistry - STEREO ISOMERISM Question with Solution | TestHub

Stereogenic atoms are those sp³ carbons having four different groups or atoms involved in E/Z (geometrical) isomerism.

In the given structure, count all chiral (asymmetric) carbons present in the fused ring system and side chains.

Also include the C=C double bond carbons (CH=CH) because they show E/Z stereoisomerism, so they are stereogenic units.

The complex ring junctions (bridgehead carbons) and substituted carbons (with CH₃, Br, side chain) all contribute to chirality.

After counting all such atoms carefully, total stereogenic atoms = 14.
