Chapter 5.SE, Problem 41AP
Interpretation Introduction

a)

Interpretation:

R and S configuration is to be assigned to the molecules by re-orienting the substituent.

Concept introduction:

Rule 1:

a) Higher atomic number precedes lower.

b) An atom node duplicated closer to the root ranks higher than one duplicated further.

Rule 2: Higher atomic mass number precedes lower.

Rule 3: Z precedes E and this precedes nonstereogenic (nst) double bonds.

Rule 4:

a) Chiral stereogenic units precede pseudoasymmetric stereogenic units and these precede nonstereogenic units (R = S > r = s > nst).

b) When two ligards have different descriptor pairs, the one with the first chosen like descriptor pairs has priority over the one with a corresponding unlike descriptor pairs.

c) r precedes s.

Rule 5: An atom or group with descriptor R has priority over its enantiomorph S.
