- ✓A meso compound
- BAn erythro isomer
- CA threo isomer
- Da glycol
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
A meso compound
a
Compound whose moelcules are superimposable on their mirror images even though it contain asymmetric carbon atoms is called a meso compound Due to presence of plane of symmetry, they are optically inactive even though contains chiral carbons.
