ChemistryBonding & shapesA2/A-levelOCR Created by: stephanie mercerCreated on: 26-01-12 12:50 what is stereoisomerism? E/Z or Cis/Trans where both groups on either side of the double bond are different from each other. 1 of 5 what is a chiral molecule? a carbon atom with four different groups attached 2 of 5 how does chiralty work? if the molecule is rotated in any way it will not match it's chiral partner. 3 of 5 why is chiralty an issue in producing drugs? one of the chiral drugs could be harmful and half of the drug is wasted as it is it's chiral partner 4 of 5 how can you over come the issues with using a chiral drug. use an enzyme in the production and start with one chiral reactant 5 of 5
