If there's an H on the side of the chiral center, find R and S normally and the opposite is the answer. if H is on the top/bottom and there's no other hydrogen on the sides, find R and S normally and that's your answer.

That's a great way of looking at it! Yes! H on the side is forward so you must reverse as you do when #4 is forward H up or down means it's in the back and so you're good to go

With Fisher I find it easier to imagine the Fisher projection as 3D and than either see the above group as in the back (just rotate your screen with the top to the right) or with the right group in the back (means that the left group is shifted to the right in its Fisher projection.) Using either of these methods you can instantly draw an arrow with group 4 on the top (first method), the right (second method). Or inversed (group 4 is in the front) on the bottom (first method) or left (second method).

When #4 is on the side, can you not trace 1-3 and do the opposite answer? Or do you have to do swap method for fischer projections? Because you did examples for newman projections with #4 in the front & doing the opposite answer rather than the swap method. I just want to make sure the same rules apply. Thank you :)
@Leah4sci

Yes, that is an excellent observation. The same rules would apply, and your method would work as well. Trace groups 1-3 when #4 is on the side of the Fischer projection and then change your answer to the opposite configuration.

In the multiple chiral center example doesnt it break the carbon skeleton if we use swap method on it . Can we break the carbon skeleton ? Will it not alter its original stereochemical position ?
@Leah4sci
2 жыл бұрын
We're not actually breaking bonds within the carbon skeleton. We are simply rearranging/swapping positions of priority for the purpose of assigning a configuration to the chiral center. Think of the swap method as a tool for determining configuration, not as a mechanism or a method of breaking or reforming bonds.

Why we did swaps min7:29? The H is out so why we did not track 123 and take the opposite of R which is S
@Leah4sci
Жыл бұрын
This is just my method for determining R/S configurations in Fischer projections in the LEAST amount of time. You may find something else works for you! My method is to first swap the lowest priority group to the back of the molecule by placing it in either the up or down position and then to make a second swap for a total even number of swaps. This is so we don't have to reverse the direction of the configuration.

Hi I was watching this video and for the Fischer projection atoms you start by putting H at the top of the atom in the first molecule but at the bottom in the next one which creates two molecules one which is S and one which is R how do you get around this as it is really confusing for me
@Leah4sci
3 жыл бұрын
Sorry to hear that you are confused. In a Fischer projection, the spine of the molecule is really on a ‘dash’ notation. Both the group that’s going up and the group that’s going down are ‘into the page.’ That means, if we can make sure #4 (the lowest priority group) is in the up OR down position of the Fischer projection, then we’re good to go and do NOT need to use the swap method to determine configuration.

In this example, we chose to make two swaps because an even number of swaps means that the configuration at the chiral center will not change. We want to maintain the chirality, so that we read the molecule correctly as either R or S. So the first swap was (1) with (4). And the second swap was (2) with (3).
