Homomers : Homomers are the identical representations of the same compound. It means that when the same compound is represented in different ways, then all the representations are known as homomers of each other. These representations are superimposable on each other.

Homomers : Homomers are the identical representations of the same compound. It means that when the same compound is represented in different ways, then all the representations are known as homomers of each other. These representations are superimposable on each other. Enantiomers: Enantiomers are defined as the stereoisomers of a compound which are related to each other as non-superimposible mirror images.They differ only with respect to the sign of specific rotation. One of the enantiomers rotates plane of polarisation to the left and is called laevotrorotatory, while the other one rotates the plane of polarisation to the right and is called dextrorotatory. read less

Isomers with the same constitution are called stereoisomers . hey can differ either in configuration or in conformation . Keep in mid that the distinction between configurational and conformational isomers is artificial, i.e. it arises from the limitations of our notation rather than from the actual molecules. Homomers These are identical molecules - same composition, constitution, configuration, and conformation. Therefore we don't need the term "homomers" at all. Indeed, we are the only ones to use it. Enantiomers Enantiomers have a very special relation between their structures - they are mirror images of one another. When we refer to chirality or left- and right-handedness, we are referring to enantiomers read less
