configurational isomers diastereomers non-mirror images (cis/trans) enantiomers mirror images non-superposable ISOMERISM same molecular formula, but different…. constitutional connectivity different stereoisomers- same connectivity different 3D orientation conformational isomers chair/boat
cis trans diastereomers
e.g. Prozac - one isomer(“S”)is significantly more active enantiomers
Chirality - right and left-handed substances - 2 spatial arrangements of atoms - analyze reflections (mirrors) same (achiral), different (chiral). plane mirror chiral -non-superposable, different arrangements in space
Elements of Symmetry Plane of symmetry: an imaginary plane passing through an object dividing it such that one half is the mirror image of the other half.
syn - plane of symmetry anti - point of symmetry . Elements of Symmetry Conformations of2,3-butanediol* . If symmetry element is present, substance is achiral *meso or R,S (later)
Elements of Symmetry Center of symmetry: a point situated so identical components of the object are located equidistant on opposite sides.
rotate 180o Chirality superposable mirror images - same compound - a plane of symmetry- achiral
see if images are superposable, e.g. rotate e.g. (180o) Cl C Br F H Chirality-sp3 or tetrahedral center with 4 different groups = chiral molecule Cl Cl C C H H F F Br Br Different, non-superposable mirror images, enantiomers
Cl Cl C C H H F F Br Br Stereocenter Stereogenic center Tetrahedral - 4 different substituents (sp3) enantiomers - an atom that interchange of 2 groups gives a stereoisomer
R S Enantiomers Lactic acid How do we distinguish chiral molecules? R/S
(7) (8) (35) (17) -Br -NH2 -Cl -OH Increasing priority R,S Convention Priority rules Assign priority to each atom bonded tostereocenter. higher atomic number higher priority (6) (1) -CH3 -H
O > N > C > H 8 > 7 > 6 > 1 R,S Convention 2. If same atoms bonded to the stereocenter, look to next set of atoms. Priority to the first point of difference. “Z” stereocenter, 4 gps.
3. View C with “4” back; 1, 2, 3 FRONT 3 4 C 1 2 R/S absolute configuration of chiral compounds Rules: 1. Identify stereogenic center (C - 4 different gps.) 2. Assign priority to groups (C - 1, 2, 3, 4) 4. If 1>2>3 clockwise = R; counterclockwise = S R
R S R & S configuration enantiomers
view as R,S Convention 3. Atoms in double (triple) bond viewed as equivalent number of single bonds (C is a stereogenic center)

rotate 180o Assign R/S to the stereogenic center of the ester S

Enantiomers & Diastereomers For a molecule with n stereocenters, a maximum of 2nstereoisomers “might” be possible. For a molecule with 1 stereocenter, 21 = 2 stereoisomers are possible. For a molecule with 2 stereocenters, a MAXIMUM of 22= 4 stereoisomers might exist.

what about a second center? R S earlier R|S R - R R - S S - R S - S

2 or more stereocenters with symmetry leads to a meso isomer, superposable mirror images. Consider 2,3-dibromobutane: S S R R R S R S
