Which of the given statement(s) about N, O, P and Q with respect to...

Which of the given statement(s) about N,O,P\mathbf{N}, \mathbf{O}, \mathbf{P} and Q\mathbf{Q} with respect to M\mathbf{M} is (are) correct? Which of the given statement(s) about N, O, P and Q with respect to M is (are) correct?

Options

  1. AM\mathbf{M} and N\mathbf{N} are non-mirror image stereoisomers
  2. BM\mathbf{M} and O\mathbf{O} are identical
  3. CM\mathbf{M} and P\mathbf{P} are enantiomers
  4. DM\mathbf{M} and Q\mathbf{Q} are identical

Correct answer

A. M\mathbf{M} and N\mathbf{N} are non-mirror image stereoisomers

Step-by-step solution

The given conformation are of the following compound Which of the given statement(s) about N, O, P and Q with respect to M is (are) correct?
Note : Fisher conformation always show the eclipsed form of molecule. Thus, we have to convert the given staggered conformation of 'O' to an eclipsed conformation.Which of the given statement(s) about N, O, P and Q with respect to M is (are) correct?
Based on the above structures, we can say that (a) M\mathrm{M} and N\mathrm{N} are diastereomers or non-mirror image stereoisomers. (b) M\mathrm{M} and O\mathrm{O} are identical. (c) M\mathrm{M} and P\mathrm{P} are enantiomers. (d) M\mathrm{M} and Q\mathrm{Q} are diastereomers and therefore not identical.
