Title: Different types of isomers
Post by: FictionDurden on October 17, 2004, 06:34:30 PM
I'm having trouble determining the relationship between two organic compounds, i.e. whether a pair of compounds are identical, enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers, structural isomers, or functional group isomers. Does anyone have any tips for determining what the relationship is? Please *delete me*
