(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic centers in the ball and stick model of lisinopril are to be identified.
Concept introduction: A carbon atom which is bonded to four different groups is termed as chiral center or stereogenic center. The groups around the stereogenic center are prioritized on the basis of
(b)
Interpretation: The stereogenic centers are to be labeled as R or S.
Concept introduction: A carbon atom which is bonded to four different groups is termed as chiral center or stereogenic center. The groups around the stereogenic center are prioritized on the basis of atomic number of their atoms in order to find the configuration of compound.
