Diastereomers are a type of a stereoisomer. Diastereomerism occurs when two or more stereoisomers of a compound have different configurations at one or more of the equivalent stereocenters and are not mirror images of each other.
Also when two diastereoisomers differ from each other at only one stereocenter they are epimers.
