Chirality and Chiral Separations
Stereochemistry arrangement of atoms in space
BIOCHEMISTRY LECTURES. Space-filling models of (A) palmitate (C16, saturated) and (B) oleate (C18, unsaturated). The cis double bond in oleate produces.
Bioorganic Compounds. Amino Acids – Proteins Lipids Carbohydrates Nucleic Acids Miscellaneous Alkaloids Vitamins Drugs In most cases biological activity.
Types of Isomers. Enantiomers Enantiomers are nonsuperimposable mirror images. Molecules are nonsuperimposable if there is no orientation in which all.
CH 4. Stereochemistry. Isomers – different compounds with the same molecular formula. Structural Isomers – isomers that differ in which atoms are bonded.
