Diastereomer

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The reaction involves the reduction of a ketone and an ester group using $LiAlH_4$. The starting material is a chiral molecule with a fixed stereocenter at the $CO_2Et$ position. When the ketone is reduced to a secondary alcohol,a new stereocenter is created at the carbon bearing the hydroxyl group. Since the hydride can attack from either the top or bottom face of the planar carbonyl group,two different stereoisomers are formed. These two products have the same configuration at the original stereocenter but different configurations at the newly formed stereocenter,making them diastereomers.
