Chemistry - STEREO ISOMERISM Question with Solution | TestHub

Question Explanation:

The question asks which of the given compounds has one of its stereoisomers as a meso compound.

Concept:

This question is based on optical isomerism and the concept of meso compounds.

Solution:

A meso compound contains two or more stereogenic centers but is optically inactive due to the presence of a plane of symmetry (POS), which leads to internal compensation of optical activity.

Thus, the stereoisomers given in option (A) & (B) are meso compounds
