Single Choice

The correct statement about A, B, C is:

AA and B are identical
BA and B are diastereomers
CA and C are enantiomers
DA and B are enantiomers
Correct Answer

Solution

A and B are enantiomers as they are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.

A and C are diastereomers. They differ in configuration at one chiral C atom and have the same configuration at other chiral carbon.

B and C are diastereomers. They differ in configuration at one chiral C atom and have the same configuration at other chiral carbon.
