there are two optical centers C₂ & C₅

if the geometry about double bond is cis then there are two pair of enantiomers & 1 meso isomer

if geometry about double bond is trans then again there will be two enantiomers pairs & 1 meso isomers

net pairs of enantiomers are 4 ...(2 in cis ,2 in trans)

number of sterio isomers = 8
