Chirality
alright guys. So if this thing is looking into the mirror so there's a mirror here that it's looking to and it's looking into it. What does it see? It sees its reflection. So this O H. Is looking into the mirror so it sees its reflection back. Basically, the O. H. Pointing right back at it and then this metal sees its reflection. It sees a method pointing back at it. And in here the seal in the back is just like that. So this would say is A and we'd say that these two things are the Ananta more of a there, the mirror images of it we need to do about the mirror method or the inversion method for this one here. When you get thio, biochemistry for those of you are bio majors or decide to doom or chemistry related classes. When you get to biochemistry and learn more about these types of structures, this is a sugar. Okay, so this is just a biological sugar and here you guys can do the mirror method, pretend you see it in the mirror. Now the inversion method when it comes to sugar, things drawn like this, the inversion method. All you have to do is invert these bonds here in the middle. Just gotta flip him the tops and bottoms stay exactly where they are. So here this group is going to stay as it is. And so is this. And all we're gonna do is invert or flip the middle bonds. So this year is gonna get flipped. So oh, each on this side h on this side, on which on this side h on this side and then each on this side of which on this side so that would represent in a tumor where we flip the middle bonds, they're The reason we flip those middle bonds is because those are the Carol centers. These carbons here are connected to four different groups each. Here, it's a little bit more advanced, um, than what's covered in your book. So that's why we're not going into great details in terms of talking about those carl centers, Remember, For a structure that looks like this, it's basically dealing with carbohydrate a sugar, biological, sugar. You just invert the middle bonds and leave the top and bottom alone. Now that we've done that, I'll give you guys a moment or so to draw the mirror image of it using the mirror method. So pretend this molecules looking into the mirror and tell me what is exactly does a c back come back here? We'll take a look at my answer and compared to yours
