Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

(A) A pair of optical isomers → Mirror-image (enantiomer) structures with chiral centre → 2, 4

(B) Asymmetric synthesis → Formation of one enantiomer preferentially from achiral substrate → 3

(C) A pair of diastereomers → Stereoisomers not mirror images (different configuration at one centre) → 2

(D) Enolisation → Keto ⇌ enol tautomerism (C=O ↔ C=C–OH) → 1
