Question
Chapter 15, Problem 67CP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Nine chiral centers of sucrose need to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Chiral molecules can be defined as molecules that have ability to form mirror images that are nonsuperimposable to each other, and thus exist as enantiomers.
