Which of the following is (are) meso?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking which of the given chemical structures are classified as meso compounds. Meso compounds are those that have multiple stereocenters but are superimposable on their mirror images, typically indicating an internal plane of symmetry.
Answer
I and IV
The final answer is I and IV
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is I and IV
More Information
Meso compounds have multiple chiral centers but are achiral due to a plane of symmetry, making their mirror images superimposable.
Tips
A common mistake is not identifying the internal plane of symmetry that characterizes meso compounds.
