Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The chirality center needs to be labeled in the given compound.

  CH3CH2CHCl2

Concept Introduction:

Chirality is the presence of an asymmetric carbon center in a molecule and a molecule which contains a chiral center cannot superimpose on its mirror image.

Label the chirality center (if one exists) in each compound. A compound may contain zero or one chirality center.
8. Assign each chiral carbon as R or S in compound-A. Draw the mirror image of compound-A and assign configuration to each chiral carbon. (note that the dotted line represents the mirror). H₂N S OH Compound A CH3 CH3 mirror CH3 CH 3 Mmok NHZ
Place an asterisk (*) next to the chirality center (sometimes called chiral atom) or centers in each compound. It is possible that a compound may not have a chiral center.
