- 4. Configuration. Relative and absolute configuration. Notation. Determination of absolute and relative configuration.
- 5. Stereoisomers discrimination. Properties of racemates and their enantiomer components. Determination of enantiomer and diastreomer composition.
- 6. Separation of stereoisomers, resolution. Crystallization, chromatography, chemical separation methods via diastereomers. Kinetic resolution. Racemization.
- 7. Homotopic and heterotopic ligands and faces. Prostereoisomerism and prochirality. Enantiotopicity and diastereotopicity. Heterotopicity and NMR, anisochrony.
- 8. Stereochemistry of molecules with double bond. Alkenes. The C=N and N=N double bonds. Determination of isomer configuration, chemical and physical methods. Interconversion of isomers.
- 9. Conformation of acyclic saturated and unsaturated compounds. Generalized anomeric effect. Conformation and physical and spectral properties of molecules and their reactivity. Winstein-Holness equation. Curtin-Hammett principle.
- 10. Conformation and configuration of cyclic molecules. Determination of configuration of substituted rings. Stability of cyclic molecules. Baldwin rules. Conformational aspects of chemistry of some ring compounds (six- and five-membered rings). Anomeric effect.
- 11. Stereoselective synthesis.
- 12. Chiroptical properties. Optical rotatory dispersion (Cotton effect). Circular dichroism. Application of chiroptical methods to determination of configuration and conformation.
