Number of diastereomers of alpha-BHC (the chiral isomer of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexachlorocyclohexane) are:
Options:
Answer:
B
Solution:
Ans. (B) 7. Sol. 1,2,3,4,5,6-Hexachlorocyclohexane has 9 configurational stereoisomers in all (7 meso and one enantiomeric pair). Alpha-BHC is one member of the chiral pair. Of the other 8 stereoisomers, one is its enantiomer, so the remaining 9 - 2 = 7 are its diastereomers.
