    Hello Leah! I really like your videos, they are great to watch! I have a question and I wonder if you could help me out! The thing is: What if in the Sawhorse-projection, the substitutes don't have an indicator wether they're going in or out of the paper, how do I know which atoms will be "on the side" of the fisher-projection and which will be facing down in it? Help would be much appreciated!

    Hey Leah you mentioned in a previous video that the horizontal lines of a Fisher projection represent wedges or molecules going into the page. Yet here, in your first example the hyrdrogens that were on dashes (coming out of the page) ended up on the horizontal lines of the Fisher. So I am a bit confused, do the horizontal lines of a Fisher represent dashes or wedges?

  • @Leah4sciMCAT

    You're welcome! The point is that we want both of our non-carbon substituents on either chiral center to ultimately be on the top-side of the molecule. The carbon substituents will need to be on the bottom-side as they are the ones lined up along the backbone of the Fischer projection.

  • @Leah4sciMCAT

    Жыл бұрын

    I'm a bit unsure of your question. In the example at 11:00, where I converted the Fischer projection to a Sawhorse, I chose to place the purple carbon on the right and the green carbon on the left. I could have chosen to place those two carbons on opposite sides of the Sawhorse, but it would have changed my perspective on the molecule. Meaning, the atoms in the back would now be drawn in the front, and vice versa. For more help with questions like this, I recommend joining the MCAT Study Hall.

  • @Leah4sciMCAT

    @Leah4sciMCAT

    3 жыл бұрын

    The sawhorse projection must be drawn in a way that represents the molecule in three-dimensions. Wedge or dash bonds would be the primary method for showing the necessary conformational information. It’s possible that your sawhorse is drawn so that you are looking down a particular carbon-carbon bond, similar to looking at a Newman projection.

    Thanks for asking. I don’t believe I said that everything turns the opposite way. At 2:42, I explained that we need to rotate the bond between the blue and green chiral carbons by 180 degrees, so that the substituents are facing in the same direction. That means keeping the blue end of the molecule in the same position (OH and H stay the same), while rotating the green end of the molecule to face in the same direction as the OH and H.

  • @Leah4sciMCAT

    When we talk about rotation, we're talking about rotating a carbon to carbon BOND. You could think of it as making the substituents on both carbons face in the same direction. So it's really a matter of perspective. Do you want to draw your Fischer projection by looking at the molecule from below? Then, rotate so that the substituents on both carbons are facing down. Or, do you want to draw your Fischer by looking at the molecule from above? Then, rotate so that the substituents on both carbons are facing up.

    In this particular sawhorse projection, the substituents on the blue carbon (the OH group included) are already sticking up. No further rotation is needed to place it on a Fischer projection where the horizontal lines are, by convention, sticking out of the page. Thanks for watching and asking!
