Solution
The correct option is A Diastereomer Both molecules have the same moleulear formula (C6H17Cl) and the same connectivity. Each molecule also has three stereocenters and does not contain a plane of symmetry. Therefore, both molecules are chiral.
The chair form of A and B are
From given figure we say that these molecules are non-superimposable and not mirror images, therefore, the molecules are diasteromers.
