Chiral Centers Dropbox Worksheet
Answer the questions in this document. When you are finished, use the Image Capture and Upload tutorial (Google Docs) to document each page of your work and upload it to the appropriate Dropbox area folder. To complete this assessment, you must be able to:
1. Recognize chiral centers and assign absolute configuration using the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system.
2. Draw structures with chiral centers including enantiomers and diastereomers.
1. Place an asterisk at each chiral center then specify its absolute configuration.
