Correct statement(s) about given compounds is/are :

 

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B, C, D
Solution:

Compound I has a plane of symmetry (POS), so it is a meso compound and hence optically inactive → (D) correct.

Compounds II and III have opposite configurations at the stereocentres, so they are mirror images (enantiomers) → (B) correct.

Compounds IV and V differ in configuration and are non-superimposable → diastereomers → (A) correct.

In V, intramolecular H-bonding stabilizes the structure more than IV → (C) correct.

Therefore, the correct options are A, B, C and D.
