(a)
Interpretation: The chiral centre(s) in the given structure have to be labelled.
Concept introduction: A center to which four different groups are attached in a tetrahedral geometry and show handedness is called chiral center. The molecule containing the chiral center is called chiral molecule.

OH OH HO OH OH OH NH₂arrow_forwardExplain why Chiral molecules are expected to interact with plane polarized light?arrow_forwardGive three different examples of chiral compounds that do not have an asymmetrically substituted carbon atom.arrow_forward
- Chiral Carbons print/draw the expanded structure of 4-bromo-4-ethylhept-1-ene. Determine if your molecule contains any chiral carbons. If there are chiral carbons in your molecule, circle or highlight all of them. If your molecule does not contain any chiral carbons explain why none of the carbons are chiral.arrow_forwardDraw a chiral isomer of C4H9Br.
