Dear All, I prepared a page for students (on my developing server: http://5.135.186.232/STdM/index.php/it/esercizi/esercitarsi-sulla-chiralita), in which they can:
1) write down an organic molecule in JSME 2) submit it to JSmol 3) attribute the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority to each group by selecting the first atom of each group which is attached to the Chiral Carbon and clicking on a button that create a label for that atom. 4) reorientate properly the molecule, in order to be able to assign the R / S configuration for chirality. This is enough for me to use in classroom just to show how one should proceed to work on exercises. My question is: Is there a way to obtain priority (by CIP rules) for each group attached to a Chiral Carbon? Is it possible to use some JSmol function(s) to obtain this information? If the answer is yes, this could help me to modify the page to give the student the chance to explore the correct result by viewing a model with correct priority labelling and also by clicking on a button which activate a function that perform the check. Sorry to bothering you... Bye!
