It is exhibited in the absorption bands of optically active chiral molecules.
It is a useful raw material in organic chemistry for the synthesis of other chiral molecules.
It is a chiral molecule, consisting of R and S enantiomers.
There are three stereocenters in alpha-tocopherol, so this is a chiral molecule.
An important part of stereochemistry is the study of chiral molecules.
For the case when the liquid crystal consists of chiral molecules an additional term to the distortion free energy density is added.
Compounds with these properties are said to have optical activity and consist of chiral molecules.
When the nucleophile is a chiral molecule diastereoisomers are formed.
This was the first time anyone had demonstrated chiral molecules.
However, enantiomers behave differently in the presence of other chiral molecules or objects.
