Let's look at our vertical lines, so this line right here means a bond going away from us in space, so we're staring down at our chiral center, and that's a bond to a carbon and that carbon is directly bonded to an oxygen, a carbon, and a hydrogen, so let's draw those in.
The definition of stereoisomers, enantiomers, and chirality centers. How to calculate the number of possible stereoisomers for a structure based on the number of chiral centers. Created by Jay.
Chirality is an important geometric property relating to a molecule's symmetry. A chiral molecule is non-superimposable with its mirror image, and has a "handedness" (think of shoes, which specifically go with a right or left foot).
