(A) is 2,3-dibromobutan -1,4-dioc acid. ...


`(A)` is `2,3-`dibromobutan `-1,4-`dioc acid. Which stereochemical reactant is `(A)`?

A

Erythro`-`

B

Meso`-`

C

Threo`-`

D

Both `(a)` and `(b)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d.

Erytho`-` or meso`-2,3-`dibromobutane `-1,4-`dioci acids are same. Erthro means two similar groups on the same side, dereived from aldotetrose, erythrose Meso compound or Erythro compound `+` Anti`-`elimination
