Stereo Isomerism

Stereo isomerism is a type of isomerism where compounds with the same molecular formula differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms, leading to distinct physical, chemical, and biological properties. Unlike structural isomers, which differ in connectivity, stereoisomers have identical connectivity but vary in three-dimensional orientation. Stereo isomerism is divided into two main categories: 1. Geometrical … Read more
