Draw the mirror image of this molecule. COOH H2N-C-H CH3 Use the wedge/hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. Include H atoms at chiral centers only. Use the "flat" representation of rings in your drawing.
For this molecule, draw the structure of the pair of enantiomers. Use the wedge and hash bond tools to indicate stereochemistry where it exists. If a group is achiral, do not use wedged or hashed bonds on it. Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. Separate structures with signs from the drop-down menu.
