Q74.The possible number of stereoisomers for 5-phenylpent-4-en-2-ol is … …

What This Question Tests

This question tests the ability to identify chiral centers and potential for geometrical isomerism (cis-trans) in a given organic compound, then determine the total number of possible stereoisomers.

Concepts Tested

Chiral centerGeometrical isomerism (cis-trans)Number of stereoisomers

Formulas Used

Number of stereoisomers = 2^n (where n is the number of chiral centers/chiral elements) for molecules without symmetry

Number of stereoisomers considering geometric and optical = product of possibilities for each element of chirality
