Ask yourself how close the isopropyl group, (CH3)2CH-, is to the -OH group in one molecule versus the other.

Now that I look at it again, they are probably constitutional isomers, am I right?

What about my previous ones? Do you agree that they are diastereomers and identical?
Thanks a lot!

Yes, tha aminophenols are same and the other one are diastereomeric althought, as far as I know, E/Z isomers are not usualy reffered to as diastereomers even when thechnicaly they are (they are stereoisomers but not mirror images)
