Question

the compound below there are thre chiral carbon( carbons A,B,C) that have been circled. Each group attached to the circles chiral carbon has been labeled with a number. These labels are not priorities. They are simply labels. Order the numbers from left to right in order of decreasing priority( left most number is the highest priority; right number is lower priority)

d below there are three chiral carbons (carbons A, B, and C ach group attached to the circled chiral carbons has been lab labels are not priorities, They are simply labels, Order the mu he order of decreasing priority (leftmost number is the high is lowest priority). OH OH H 3 2 H n A B

Explanation / Answer

Chirality and priority of groups

Chiral center A,

Priority of groups : 2 > 3 > 1 > 4

Configuration : R

chiral center B,

Priority of groups : 2 > 4 > 1 > 3

Configuration : S

chiral center C,

Priority of groups : 2 > 3 > 4 > 1

Configuration : S
