Correct answer: C

AIPMT 2008 Chemistry - Some Basic Concepts of Organic Chemistry Question 41 English Explanation


Both geometrical isomerism (cis-trans form) and optical isomerism is possible in the given compound.

No. of optical isomer = 2n = 21 = 2
(where n = no. of asymmetric carbon)

Hence total no. of stereoisomers = 2 + 2 = 4
