Q. The number of stereo isomers possible for the molecule, Question

NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2020Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques

Solution:

It has three chiral carbons

So number of enantiomers $=2^{3}=8$ .

Since each pair gives cis and trans isomers (around double bond).

So total number of stereoisomers $=8\times 2=16$

Solution
