Problem #10: Click the mouse on each of the chiral carbons in the molecule shown below. Click the Help button for a short review on the requirements for chirality in organic molecules.
If you would like to know the total number of stereocenters in the molecule, click and hold the mouse button on the box below.
The carbon indicated is chiral since it is bonded to four different groups; a hydrogen, a 2-methylpropyl group, a ring CH2 group and a ring CH (an sp2 carbon).
