Compound A shown below is a penicillin-type of antibiotics used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. Among the total possible stereoisomers exist for compound A, how many of them do not have the antibiotic effect? Hint: Changing a chirality center's R or S designation removes the antibiotic effect. Only one stereoisomer is active as antibiotics. A. 3 B. 7 C. 15 D. 31
