On pluto , where everything is frozen, astronauts discovered two forms of butane gauche and anti.Assuming that there are no rotations around single bonds, which statement about the two forms is correct ?

AThey are enantiomer
BThey are distereoisomers
Correct Answer
CThey are meso compounds
DThe gauche form has two stereogenic centers, and the anti has only one

Solution

If no rotation then these two are not inter convertible and are diastereisomer.
