R S rotation for stereoisomers
Stereochemistry in biological molecules is often denoted by the D‑ and L‑ convention, instead of the ?‑ and ?‑ configurations determined by the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog methodology. Naturally occurring α‑amino acids are typically in the L‑configuration. The Fischer projection of L‑alanine is shown. L‑alanine Identify which structures are equivalent to the L‑configuration.
