Diasteromers
Same Molecular Formula
Same Connectivity
Cannot be interconverted by rotation around single bonds because of a chiral center.
The compound is not a non-superimposable mirror image.
Enantiomers
Same Molecular Formula
Same Connectivity
Cannot be interconverted by rotation around single bonds because of a chiral center.
The compound is a non-superimposable mirror image. Which means the same name except for an R or an S.
