Structural Representation and Isomerism
Different ways to draw organic molecules, and how the same formula can represent different compounds.
Structural Formulas
Organic molecules can be represented in several ways, including condensed formulas and skeletal (line-angle) structures.
Isomerism
Isomers are compounds with the same molecular formula but different structures or spatial arrangements.
- Structural isomerism — different connectivity of atoms
- Stereoisomerism — same connectivity, different spatial arrangement
