Proposed Extension to the Natta Projection Notation System for Enabling an Indication of Relative Stereochemistry and the Stereochemical State ()
Abstract
A system of structure depiction, as an extension of the wedge and hashed wedge bonds (Natta projection), and text notation is herein suggested that embodies more explicit information—or reduced over-statement as circumstances warrant—on the stereochemical nature of the system at hand, in particular, for those cases where only the relative stereochemistry of a compound is known.
