Question
Chapter 15.4, Problem 15.12P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Two chiral centers of captopril molecule should be labeled.
Concept introduction:
Chiral molecules can be defined as molecules that have ability to form mirror images that are nonsuperimposable to each other, and thus exist as enantiomers.
