List-I | List-II |
|---|---|
(P) Diastereomers | (1) Internal compensation |
(Q) Meso compound | (2) External compensation |
(R) Conformers | (3) Different reaction under chiral medium |
(S) Racemic mixture | (4) Results by the free rotation about C-C bond |
(T) Enantiomers | (5) Cis-Trans isomerism |
Codes :
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Ans. (D) P 5, Q 1, R 4, S 2, T 3.
Sol. Diastereomers include cis-trans (geometrical) isomers, so P 5. A meso compound is optically inactive by internal compensation, so Q 1. Conformers result from free rotation about C-C single bonds, so R 4. A racemic mixture is optically inactive by external compensation (equal amounts of the two enantiomers cancel), so S 2. Enantiomers react differently in a chiral medium, so T 3.
