Answer:

diastereomers

Explanation:

Enantiomers are optical isomers that are mirror images of each other. Enantiomers can not be separated by physical methods because the both compounds have almost the same physical properties such as melting points, boiling points, etc. This makes it difficult to separate enanatiomers by conventional methods.

A common method of separating enantiomers is by converting them into diasteromers which are easily separated since diasteromers often have different chemical and physical properties.
