The correct statement regarding the following compounds is 
- A all three compounds are chiral
- B only I and II are chiral
- C I and III are diastereomers
- D only I and III are chiral
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) only I and III are chiral
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(2-R, 3-R\) configuration, s0 it is a chiral compound \(2-R, 3-S\) configuration has plane of symmetry or in other words, rotation of hall part is cancelled by the other half, so it is not a chiral compound. \(2-S, 3-S\) configuration, so it is also a chiral compound.
