Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: In the given pair of species, the group that has higher priority in
Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing
(b)
Interpretation: In the given pair of species, the group that has higher priority in
Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing atomic number. An atom of higher atomic number gets higher priority.
