A carbon which is attached to four different atoms or group of atoms with different environment is called as Chiral Carbon or Asymmetric Carbon.
Non-<span>superimposable:
</span> The mirror image (molecule) of chiral carbon cotaining compounds are Non.Superimposable on each other. They are called enantiomers of each other.
Polarized Light and Chiral Carbon:
When a polarized light is allowed to fall on either enantiomer of chiral compound, it is rotated other clockwise or anti-clockwise.
Examples:
Below are three axamples of compounds containing chiral carbon.
