ORGANIC CHEMISTRY : How to assign R/S configuration

This course contains materials that will help students to understand description of chiral centers, identification of substituent priorities around chiral carbons, 3-dimensional structure of molecules and how to assign R and S configurations to molecules with single chiral centers, multiple chiral centers , and cyclic structures. This is followed by a brief review of Fischer projections. Students will have questions to answer at the end of the course . The questions range from mild difficulty to more difficult ones . Answers are provided at the end of the course .
