| 1 |
chiral
|
objects that are not superimposable on their mirror image
|
|
| 2 |
achiral
|
has a plane of symmetry and center of symmetry
|
|
| 3 |
plane of symmetry
|
imaginary plane passing through an object and dividing it so that one half is the reflection...
|
|
| 4 |
center of symmetry
|
a point situated so that identical components of an object are located on opposite sides and...
|
|
| 5 |
achiral molecule w/ plane of symmetry

| 6 |
chiral center
|
|
|
| 7 |
pair of enantiomers
|
|
|
| 8 |
pair of enantiomers
|
|
|
| 9 |
enantiomers
|
nonsuperimposable mirror images
|
|
| 10 |
chiral center
|
carbon with 4 different groups bonded to it
|
|
| 11 |
stereocenter
|
an atom about which the exchange of two groups produces a stereoisomer
|
|
| 12 |
diastereomers
|
stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other. arise when there are two or more stereocenters
|
|
| 13 |
configurational isomers
|
isomers that differ by configuration of substituents on an atoms
|
|
| 14 |
diastereomers
|
|
|
| 15 |
conformational isomerism
|
form of stereoisomerism where isomers can be created solely through rotations
|
|
| 16 |
atropisomers
|
isomers which lack a chiral center but do not interconvert because of hindered rotation
|
|
| 17 |
Meso compounds
|
molecules containing 2 or more chiral centers but is achiral. It also has to have chiral isomers
|
|
| 18 |
racemic mixture
|
equimolar mixture of two enantiomers
