(b)
Interpretation:
An explanation as to why two isomers of the compounds are formed having different melting point is to be stated. The stereochemical relationship between the isomers is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The diastereomeric compounds have different physical properties like melting point and boiling point. The sulfonium salts having the chiral center at the sulfur atom undergo slow interconversions from one configuration to the other like
