This video will show you how to quickly identify enantiomers, diastereomers and meso compounds in chiral molecules with more than one chiral center by labeling chiral centers for each stereoisomer with its R and S configuration and also by using the swap method, as taught in my previous videos.
Finally, I’ll show you how to identify and visualize the plane of symmetry in meso compounds using an Organic Chemistry Model Kit.

    Accurate and in-depth, as always. I've begun to teach your method of the "swap technique" to my students and many of them prefer it. Thanks for your continued quality videos. You're the first place I send students for videos. Please let us know how we can support you more.
  • i loveee your videos, they are by far the best and most easiest to understand. thank you for all your help! also, is there any way you could possibly make videos explaining over nucleophilics/electrophilics & gibbs free energy/thermodynamics/kinetics?
  • thank you so much i literally have a quiz on this tomorrow and watching this video has cleared any doubts
  • @alessandrac1940
    Thx this is very helpful to see both the line drawings and the physical 3d model
  • @Krishna-ow8yp
    Thanku mam for clearing my confusion about entiomers 😊😊
  • @SaadKhan-ny8no
    Your are far more great teaching than my University best teacher Dr. ALI. Now you takes his position so now your are my best teacher... Lovs from Pakistan
  • @lucifershome
    organic chemistry tutor officially has a run for his money
  • @abirdas3955
    Oh dear teacher you are back finally. We miss you so much these days. Welcome back 🙏
  • @sn-bo3un
    not throw shade but your videos are wayyy more helpful than The organic chemistry tutor

    Tomorrow my mid term exam i am doing masters in chemistry 😅... it help me alot thank you❤❤
