Enantiomers in Fisher projection
« on: April 16, 2013, 09:20:09 AM »
Which of the following formulas of the Fischer-projection shows the enantiomer that can be found only once?

I don't understand. Can someone explain, what is meant by once?

Can you name each of these compounds, including R or S. There will be 4 that you name one way, and the other is named the other way - this is the one you want.
