In chemistry, enantiomers are two stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The diastereomericcompound of Yneeds to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Diastereomers are compounds with same molecular formula, and also they should be non-mirror & non-identical stereoisomers.
