Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The Fischer projection and line formula for L-threonine is to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
The absolute configuration of a chirality center is its three dimensional spatial arrangement of the substituents attached to it.
When determining the configuration of a chiral center, the atoms or groups attached to it are first assigned priorities on the basis of their
If two atoms attached to the chiral center have the same atomic number, then they are compared on the basis of the atomic numbers of the atoms attached to them.
The molecule is oriented, such that the lowest ranked group points away from the observer.
If the remaining three groups in order of the decreasing priority trace a clockwise path, the configuration is R.
If the remaining three groups in order of the decreasing priority trace a counter clockwise path, the configuration is S.
