Step 1. Draw the bond-line structure for 2-chlorohexan-3-ol.
Step 2. Identify the chiral centres.
There are two chiral centres: C-2 and C-3. So, there are
Step 3. Convert the bond-line structure to four wedge-dash structures.
The combinations will be WW, WD, DW, DD (W = wedge; D = dash).
And there you have them.
