The Fischer projection of $D$-erythrose is defined by the structure $CHO-C(OH)(H)-C(OH)(H)-CH_2OH$ with both hydroxyl groups on the right. $D$-Erythrose and its isomers are listed as $P, Q, R,$ and $S$ in Column-$I$. Choose the correct relationship of $P, Q, R,$ and $S$ with $D$-erythrose from Column-$II$.
Column-$I$:
$P$: $CHO-C(OH)(H)-C(OH)(H)-CH_2OH$ (rotated)
$Q$: $CHO-C(H)(OH)-C(OH)(H)-CH_2OH$
$R$: $CHO-C(OH)(H)-C(H)(OH)-CH_2OH$
$S$: $CHO-C(H)(OH)-C(H)(OH)-CH_2OH$ (enantiomer)
Column-$II$:
$1$. Diastereomer
$2$. Identical
$3$. Enantiomer

  • A
    $P \rightarrow 2, Q \rightarrow 3, R \rightarrow 2, S \rightarrow 2$
  • B
    $P \rightarrow 3, Q \rightarrow 1, R \rightarrow 1, S \rightarrow 2$
  • C
    $P \rightarrow 2, Q \rightarrow 1, R \rightarrow 1, S \rightarrow 3$
  • D
    $P \rightarrow 2, Q \rightarrow 3, R \rightarrow 3, S \rightarrow 1$
