Recognizing Stereoisomers II

1. The following compounds may exist as two or more stereoisomers. These may be classified as enantiomer pairs or achiral diastereomers.
Select a compound by clicking the button beneath its structure, and then enter the number of isomer types in the appropriate answer box.

Four cage carboxylic acids (options 1-4): bromo-chloro-methyladamantane acid, dimethyladamantane acetic acid, bromo-methyladamantane acetic acid, dimethyladamantane acrylic acid
Four cage carboxylic acids (options 5-8): adamantane dicarboxylic acid, adamantane acrylic acid, chloro-bromoadamantane acrylic acid, adamantane methylene-dicarboxylic acid
