Chemistry - STEREO ISOMERISM Question with Solution | TestHub

Ans. Enantiomers.

Sol. Both are (3-hydroxycyclopent-1-en-1-yl)methanol: the ring in the second drawing is simply the first ring turned in the plane of the paper (note the C=C is drawn on a different edge), so the OH-bearing carbon is the same single stereocentre in both. The dashed OH in the two drawings corresponds to opposite configurations (R in the first, S in the second). One stereocentre, opposite configurations : enantiomers.
