Structure of one of the enantiomer of ...

Structure of one of the enantiomer of carvone is given below. Find the asymmetric carbon atom and determine whether it has ( R ) of (S ) configuration .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1-asymmetric carbon atom is present configuration =S
Lower priority group is present below the plane so anticlockwise direction of groups means -S configuration
