Interpretation:
The stereocenter has to be found and the four groups has to be labeled from 1 to 4 using the system of priorities based on
Concept Introduction:
If a molecule contains a carbon atom that is bonded to four different groups, then that carbon is said to be chiral carbon and the carbon center responsible for this chirality is known as stereocenter. Stereocenter are located in a compound by looking into the atoms or groups that is attached to the carbon atoms. An example of a compound having chiral center is shown below,
The stereocenter can have either R or S configuration. This can be identified by numbering the groups from 1 to 4 that is attached to the stereocenter. If the stereocenter has the same type of atoms attached to it, then the next atoms are considered. The way in which the numbering was given is based only on the atomic number.
