For each compound, determine whether the molecule has an internal mirror plane of symmetry. If it does, draw the mirror plane on a three-dimensional drawing of the molecule. If the molecule does not have an internal mirror plane, determine whether the structure is chiral. cis-1,2-dibromocyclobutane
Please draw this structure in wedge-dash and identify chiral centers and determine stereochem of a compound that contains a cyclohexane
A molecule that possesses an internal plane of symmetry can never be chiral.
