Question

Which statement is true of 1,3-dimethyleyelobutance?
  1. Only one from of the compound is possible
  2. Two diastereomeric forms are possible
  3. Two sets of enantiomers are possible
  4. Two enantiomeric forms and one meso compound are possible

A
Only one from of the compound is possible
B
Two diastereomeric forms are possible
C
Two sets of enantiomers are possible
D
Two enantiomeric forms and one meso compound are possible
Solution
Verified by Toppr



These 2 diastereomers are possible for 1,3-dimethyleyelobutane.
Diasteoreomers are the non-mirror image, non-identical stereoisomers having different configurations at one or more stereocenters.
Hence, option B is correct.

A schematic analysis of the reaction of one enantiomer with racemic mixture is shown below
d+dandl(d)(d)The(+)formofAracemicmixtureof+chiralmoleculesothermoleculeswith(d)(l)50%(d)and50%(l)

The products (d-d) and (d-l) are clearly neither identical nor enantiomers (non-superimposable mirror images) as the mirror image of (d-d) is (l-l) not (d-l). They are diastereomers, 'stereoisomers that are not mirror images'.

The formation of diastereomers allows the separation of enantiomers (called resolution) which is not easy as enantiomers have identical physical properties. One general procedure for separating enantiomers is to allow them to react with naturally occurring chiral molecule to form a pair of diastereomers. These can be separated easily as they have different physical properties. if the original chemical reaction can be reversed, the enantiomers can be isolated.

Which of the following is an example of diastereomers?

S1: Geometrical isomerism along double bond in cycloalkenes is possible with at least eight atoms in the ring.
S2: Tartaric acid HOOCC|HOHC|HOHCOOH can have two meso forms which are mirror images and enantiomers of each other.
S3 : Organic molecules having only one chiral carbon atom are always optically active.
S4 : Enantiomer have same physical properties so they can not be seprated by fractional distallation.
