Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.43P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The number of chiral centers in the molecule aldosterone is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
An atom attached to four different atoms or groups is the chiral atom (chiral center).
The chiral centers are represented by asterisks. In a molecule, more than one chiral centers may be present.
