Enchiral

Example:The two enantiomeric forms of the molecule have different biological activities.

Definition:Describing molecules that are mirror images of each other and are not superimposable, also known as enantiomers.

Example:The chirality of molecules plays a crucial role in drug design, as different enantiomers can have dramatically different effects.

Definition:Having the property of chirality, meaning that the object is not superimposable on its mirror image.

Example:In organic chemistry, enantioenriched enantiomers are often used in enantioselective reactions to achieve high yields and enantioselectivity.

Definition:Relating to molecules that are non-superimposable mirror images, known as enantiomers.
