Best Answer

The two enantiomers of 2,4-dibromopentane are the two isomers in which the absolute stereodescriptors of the two stereogenic centers are both R or both S. The two compounds are named as (R,R)-2,4-dibromopentane and (S,S)-2,4-dibromopentane.

(R,S)-2,4-dibromopentane, which contains a mirror plane defined by the central atom and the two hydrogen atoms attached to it, is the meso form.
