Stereoisomers have the same connectivity but different spatial arrangements from "summary" of Organic Chemistry by John E. McMurry
Stereoisomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula and connectivity of atoms, but differ in the spatial arrangement of their atoms. This difference in spatial arrangement can result in stereoisomers having different physical and chemical properties. For example, stereoisomers may have different melting points, boiling points, solubility, and biological activity, even though they have the same atoms bonded together in the same order. One type of stereoisomer is known as geometric isomers or cis-trans isomers. Geometric isomers have restricted rotation around a double bond or ring, leading to different spatial arrangements of atoms. In cis isomers, similar groups are on the same side of the do...
