  • Compounds Having Two or More Chiral Centers

    • Since the properties of these compounds (see below) are significantly different, they cannot be enantiomers.
    • How, then, are we to classify these isomers and others like them?
    • Since these two compounds are optically active, each must have an enantiomer.
    • These are shown in the following illustration, together with the assignments that have been made on the basis of chemical interconversions.
    • As a general rule, a structure having n chiral centers will have 2n possible combinations of these centers.

    • Of these,—
    • These are confined almost exclusively to words derived from the Greek, and were equivalent to p + h, t + h, c + h, i.e. to the corresponding voiceless mutes with a following breath, as in Eng. loop-hole, hot-house, block-house.
    • These were voiced.
    • These were voiceless.
    • Of these, x was equivalent to cs, while the equivalence of z is uncertain.
