Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The configuration of the product of the transformation from hex-1-en-3-ylbenzene to hexan-3-ylbenzene is R or S configuration is to be indicated. The structure of the corresponding product that shows its absolute configuration is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as the chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called asymmetric or stereogenic centers. The chiral atom sometimes results in the formation of enantiomers which are the non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
