    Introduction Chiral/Asymetrix Carbon: by Sadaf Latif

    Uploaded by

    Muhammad Akram
    This document discusses different types of carbon compounds including chiral/asymmetric carbon, pseudo chiral carbon, and isomers. It defines chiral carbon as carbon atoms with four different groups bonded to it. Pseudo chiral carbons are situated between two chiral carbons. Isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formulas. Stereoisomers are isomers where the molecular formula is the same but the arrangement in space is different. Epimers are isomers that differ in the position of a hydroxyl group at one asymmetric carbon. Enantiomers are stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other, requiring a minimum of one chiral carbon.

    Introduction Chiral/Asymetrix

    Carbon
    By
    Sadaf Latif
    Chiral/Asymetric carbon:
    Carbon atoms have four valences.
    It having all four valances satisfied by four
    different groups called chiral carbon.
    b
    Chiral Carbon CHO
    a C d CH3 C OH
    H
    c
    Pseudo Chiral Carbon:
    If a carbon is situated b/w two chiral carbons
    called pseudo chiral carbon.
    Isomer:
    Many carbon compounds which have same no
    of atoms in them but have completely different
    structures.
    These are the element have some no of atom
    but arranged differently.
    Isomer is the term that originated from the two
    Greek terms iso same ….. MerosParts
    These are the compounds which have same
    molecular formula but different structural
    formula. So having different properties.
    Stereoisomer's:
    These are the isomers in which the molecular
    formula is some but the arrangement in space is
    different as in above example.
    In Carbohydrates same molecular formula but
    different in the position of –OH group on one or
    more of their asymetric carbons.
    The no of possible stereo isomers of a
    compounds depends on the no of chiral carbons
    atoms.
    2n n no of chiral carbons atoms
    open chain of glucose 2/4 = 16 isomers
    Close chain of glucose 2/5 = 32 isomers
    Epimers:
    These are the isomers different n the position of
    the hydroxyl group at only one asymmetric
    carbon.
    Examples:
    D glucose
    D galactose
    Are epimers
    Enantiomers:
    These stereoisomer's are mirror images of each
    other.
    Non super imposable
    Mirror image
    Required minimum 1 chiral carbons
    Having different physical properties
