This exercise applies to both structures. In each molecule, if we change only one of the two chiral centers from R to S or vice versa, we would obtain that molecule’s diastereomer.
Determine the total number of stereoisomers for each structure below. SOLUTION
Select one stereoisomer (of those possible), for each structure, and change the configuration around one stereocenter, what would be the relationship between the two stereoisomers? SOLUTION
