structure

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Ans. (C) 7.

Sol. The compound is 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexabromocyclohexane, which has 6 equivalent stereocentres. Like the inositols it gives 9 configurational stereoisomers, of which 7 are meso (achiral) and the remaining 2 form a single enantiomeric pair. Meso-isomers = 7.
