The r or s configuration to the single stereocenter in each should be assigned.

Concept Introduction:

Carvone comes under the chemical family known as terpenoids. It is present naturally in several important oils, but is most abundant within the oils from the seeds of dill, spearmint and caraway.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Following are structural formulas for the enantiomers of carvone. Each has a distinctive odor characteristic of the source from which it is isolated. Assign an R or S configuration to the single chiral center in each enantiomer. Why do they smell different when they are so similar in structure?
What is the correct assignment of the names of the following ketones? H;C CH3 CH3 1 2 O 1 = acetone; 2 = phenol; 3 = benzaldehyde 1 = acetone; 2 = acetophenone; 3 = benzophenone %3D %3D O 1 = formaldehyde; 2 = benzaldehyde; 3 = acetophenone %3D O 1 = acetaldehyde; 2 = acetophenone; 3 = benzaldehyde %3D %3D
