Chapter 5: Q. 28 E-b (page 148)

Which, if any, of the following structures represent meso compounds? (Blue = N, green = Cl.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

(b). Meso compound.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of Meso compounds.

Molecules that have a plane of symmetry are known as meso compounds.

02

Convert the given structure into atomic form.

Blue spheres representNitrogen,black spheres鈥攃arbon,grey spheres鈥攈ydrogen.

According to the representation of the atoms, draw the structure of the compound.

03

Identify the plane of symmetry

As the plane of symmetry is present in the compound, it can be considered as Meso compounds.
