5. Chirality Enantiomers vs. Diastereomers
20PRACTICE PROBLEM
Provide the enantiomer for the chiral molecule shown below using the following methods: (i) draw the non-superimposable mirror image of the molecule and (ii) swap the spatial orientation of the groups at each chiral center. Are the structures obtained from (i) and (ii) identical?
