  2. Absolute configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_configuration

    Examples of absolute configuration of some carbohydrates and amino acids according to Fischer projection (D/L system) and Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules (R/S system) The R/S system is an important nomenclature system for denoting enantiomers. This approach labels each chiral center R or S according to a system by which its substituents ...

    More generally, for any pair of enantiomers, all of the descriptors are opposite: (R,R) and (S,S) are enantiomers, as are (R,S) and (S,R). Diastereomers have at least one descriptor in common; for example (R,S) and (R,R) are diastereomers, as are (S,R) and (S,S). This holds true also for compounds having more than two stereocenters: if two ...

  4. Stereoisomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoisomerism

    A configurational stereoisomer is a stereoisomer of a reference molecule that has the opposite configuration at a stereocenter (e.g., R- vs S-or E- vs Z-). This means that configurational isomers can be interconverted only by breaking covalent bonds to the stereocenter, for example, by inverting the configurations of some or all of the ...

  5. Enantiomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantiomer

    There are three common naming conventions for specifying one of the two enantiomers (the absolute configuration) of a given chiral molecule: the R/S system is based on the geometry of the molecule; the (+)- and (−)- system (also written using the obsolete equivalents d- and l-) is based on its optical rotation properties; and the D/L system is based on the molecule's relationship to ...

  8. Stereochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereochemistry

    Stereochemistry, a subdiscipline of chemistry, studies the spatial arrangement of atoms that form the structure of molecules and their manipulation. [1] The study of stereochemistry focuses on the relationships between stereoisomers, which are defined as having the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms (constitution) but differing in the geometric positioning of the atoms in space.
