AI Generated Solution

To rank the groups -Cl, -CH₃, -SH, and -OH in order of decreasing priority for R, S configuration, we will follow the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog (CIP) priority rules. Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the Atomic Numbers First, we need to identify the atomic numbers of the first atoms in each group: - For -Cl (Chlorine), the atomic number is 17. - For -CH₃ (Methyl), the first atom is Carbon (C), with an atomic number of 6. - For -SH (Thiol), the first atom is Sulfur (S), with an atomic number of 16. - For -OH (Hydroxyl), the first atom is Oxygen (O), with an atomic number of 8. ...
