Chirality is a tough organic chemistry topic. But if you're reading this, you already know that. Be sure to watch my Chirality and Stereochemistry video series to make sense of chiral atoms, enantiomers, absolute configuration and finding R/S for simple and complex molecules.
The cheat sheet below is meant to serve as a study guide to help you as you learn. So download a copy to your phone, and another to your laptop and computer. And be sure to share with your classmates.
Once you feel confident, click to try the Chirality/Stereochemistry practice quiz.

Anirudh Nikhil` says
OMG that’s hell of an idea..
Your work helped me a-lot, I’d be really in the heavens if you made cheat sheets for general reactions of carbohydrates; alcohols, phenols and ethers; aldehydes and ketones; carboxyllic acids and its derivatives; amines.
no joke, it’d mean a lot for me

Nneka O says
Hi Leah! I was wondering if you would consider doing a cheat sheet for the organic chemistry nomenclature?
Leah4sci says
I have thought about it Nneka, but I tend to have about a thousand ideas a day so I write them down in the hopes of getting to them… one day
