Title: geometric/optical isomers
Post by: vanalm on March 31, 2007, 02:40:02 PM

Hello. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good website that would show some good examples of geometric and optical isomers? It's really hard to see when it is 2-dimensional in the book. Our text book has a really good website that shows animations, but for what ever reason, I can only hear the audio that goes with this section.
Thanks.
