Although we learned in Section 5.4 that uncharged nitrogen atoms generally cannot be chiral centers (due to nitrogen inversion), an exception is Tröger's base. Tröger's base has two enantiomers that can be separated from each other. They are different in their configurations at the N atoms. One enantiomer is shown on the right, viewed from two different perspectives. (a) Draw the second enantiomer of Tröger's base. (b) Explain why the two enantiomers do not interconvert. Tröger's base
