An organic compound having a carbon attached to four different groups is optically active. The carbon atom is called chiral carbon. Two compounds which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are called enantiomers(optical rotation is equal and opposite). If a compound contains two asymmetric centres, then the compounds which are not the mirror images of each other are called diastereomers. If the two symmetric compound have a plane of symmetry then it is mesomer
