  • In this clip, the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog Convention is introduced, to allow for assignment of absolute configuration of stereocenters. I dunno why it took three dudes to make the convention, but it's pretty sweet if you think about it.

    I had been spending hours figuring out R and S and the E and Z config!!! But prof Dave.. You have saved my day.. Your videos are super cool and way way easier to process mentally than the hours of lectures i have heard..
    Thank you sir❤

    I was having issues with spacial imagination until I saw you look at the hydrogen and imagined it in the back and then you could see all the 1,2,3 priorities in the plane. Thanks so much!!
