- Stereoisomers-molecules that have the same constitution, but different disposition of groups in space.
- In other words the atoms are connected to each other in the same way, they only differ with respect to relative orientation in three--dimensional space.

★ Structural isomerism : Having same molecular formula but different structures.
★ Stereoisomerism : Having same molecular formula and structure but different configuration, i.e. arrangement of their atoms in space
