  • This video provides an overview of the stereochemistry of organic compounds and defines what exactly a chiral carbon center is. This video also shows you how to assign R and S configuration to a chirality center whenever the hydrogen (4th group) atom is in the front, back, or neither. It also discusses nomenclature - how to name organic compounds using R and S absolute configuration. It provides a lot of examples and practice problems.

      In minute 17:00 shouldn't there be 9 chiral centers and not just 8. I am referring to the carbon under the second carbon that you numbered. Isn't that also a chiral center since it is attached to 4 different groups?

    TY, I appreciate all your hard work. I watch many of your videos and they have helped a lot! ***Possible CORRECTION? looks like the cholesterol molecule in your video has the double bond in the wrong place. *** I kept going over and over this and could not understand why Carbon-5 (the one due south of the methyl group) was not a chiral center? As the figure is drawn, it should be...which would make 9 stereocenters, not 8. But when I looked up cholesterol, the double bond is actually between C-5 and C-6 not as you've shown it. Just in case anyone else got stuck on this problem.

      Yes, he drew the double bond incorrectly, the two cicle hexanes are supposed to be "fused" via a double bond between the carbon under chiral carbon 2 and the carbon to it's right, so in the cholesterol molecule there are only 8 chiral centers, but the molecule shown in the video has 9 chiral centers.

      On carbon 2 Cl is on a dash and H is on a wedge. Cl is 1, the carbon bonded to Br is 2, the carbon bonded to OH is 3, and H is 4. Numbers increased going CCW so that would be S, but because H is wedged it is R.
      On carbon 3 Br is on a wedge and H is on a dash. Br is 1, the carbon bonded to Cl is 2, the CH3 is 3 and H is 4. Numbers increased CCW so that would be S.

    In problem 3, why is the tertiary carbon closest to the double bond not considered a chiral center? I am talking about the bottom right carbon on the farthest benzene to the left of the cholesterol.

    I've got a question regarding the Hydrogen Atoms in the Cholesterol Molecule. Did you follow any rules when placing the Hydrogens in between the Carbon structure regarding their position behind or in front of the planes? Or is their position arbitrary? Thank you so much for this great tutorial. It really helps!
