Isomer Relationships, Conformational Stability, and Reaction Selectivity Instructions: Read the instructions carefully and answer the following questions in the space provided. Then attach the PDF file on Discussion Board for peer discussion and peer review.
1. In a few sentences define each of the three main classes of isomers below. Configurational Isomers can be further classified as either enantiomers or diastereomers and should also be discussed. Your descriptions should enable your peers to quickly and easily compare and contrast the differences between the different classes of isomers.
A. Constitutional Isomers (or Structural Isomers) B. Conformational Isomers C. Configurational Isomers (or Stereoisomers)
I. Enantiomers II. Diastereomers
