16 Not Everything is Chiral! achiral: not chiral; mirror images are superimposible Slide 16

17 Symmetry Tests for Achiral Molecules Any molecule with a plane of symmetry or a center of symmetry is achiral (not chiral) A plane of symmetry bisects a molecule into two mirror image halves Slide 17

18 Symmetry Tests for Achiral Molecules Any molecule with a plane of symmetry or a center of symmetry is achiral (not chiral) plane of symmetry H 3 C CH 3 A plane of symmetry bisects a molecule into two mirror image halves Slide 18

23 Chirality Center Chirality center: an atom bonded to ligands in a spatial arrangement which is not superimposable on its mirror image Asymmetric carbon: a carbon atom bonded to four different atoms or groups (a type of chirality center) Y W C Z X other terminology commonly used: stereocenter stereogenic center Do not use these terms to mean chirality center. They have a different meaning. Leroy G. Wage, J. J. Chem. Educ. 2006, 83, Mislow, K.; Siegel, J. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1984, 106, Slide 23

24 Chirality Center A molecule with a single chirality center is chiral Br F C H bromochlorofluoromethane is chiral Cl Slide 24

25 Chirality Center A molecule with a single chirality center is chiral OH H 3 C C H CH 2 CH 3 2-butanol is chiral although two carbon atoms are bonded to the chirality center, they are part of different groups Slide 25

28 1 Chirality Center = Chiral A molecule with a single chirality center must be chiral. But a molecule with two or more chirality centers may be chiral or it may not be chiral (Section 5.7) H 2 C C O CH 3 H F Br C Cl H OH H 3 C C H CH 2 CH 3 CH 3 Cl OH H D C CH 3 T Slide 28

29 Chirality Centers Other Than Carbon Since nitrogen undergoes rapid pyramidal inversion, it is not considered a chirality center. The energy barrier to inversion is large enough for phosphines and sulfoxides, that they are considered chirality centers. Ea (phospine) ~ 132 kcal/mol Ea (sulfoxide) ~ 45 kcal/mol Ea (amines) ~ 24 kcal/mol Slide 29

33 CIP R/S NotaGon Step One: Locate chirality center chirality center CH 3 HO Cl C H Slide 33

34 CIP R/S NotaGon Step Two: Orient molecule so that lowest ranked (CIP priority) atom or group points away from you chirality center CH 3 CH 3 H HO C C H Cl HO Cl Slide 34

37 EnanGomers Molecules which are non-superimposible mirror images are called enantiomers. Enantiomer describes a relationship between two molecules (enantiomer: opposite handedness). OH enantiomers OH 180 º OH (S)-2-butanol (R)-2-butanol enantiomers have opposite configurations (R/S) at every chirality center Slide 37

38 Isomers isomers constitutional (structural) Do the molecules have the same connectivity? no yes stereoisomers Can the molecules be interconverted by rotation around single bonds? yes no conformational configurational Slide 38

39 Stereoisomers configurational stereoisomers geometrical Is the isomerism at a doulbe bond? yes no optical Are the compounds nonsuperimposible mirror images? yes no enantiomers diastereomers Slide 39

40 Stereogenic Center vs. Chirality Center A stereogenic center (stereocenter) is an atom bearing several groups that when two groups are interchanged, a stereoisomer is formed. Chirality center?: YES Stereogenic center?: YES Is chiral: nonsuperimposible mirror image no plane of symmetry S Is a stereogenic center: exchange of two groups gives stereoisomer Leroy G. Wage, J.
