Which of the following pairs represents anomers?
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D
Analysing the options
Option-(A):
Given structures are open chain structures and both the structures are non-superimposable and not mirror images to each other. So, they are diastereomers.
Option-(B):
Given structures are open chain structures and both structures are non-superimposable mirror images to each other, so they are enantiomers.
Option-(C):
Configuration of two structures is different at only C1 carbon. So, they are anomers.
Option-(D):
Configuration differs at C−1 and at some other carbons as well which makes them diastereomers, so they are not anomers.
So, the correct answer is option (C).
