Is D or H Lower Priority? Understanding Isotope Ranking in Chemistry
When comparing hydrogen (H) and its heavier isotope deuterium (D), a common question arises: which one has higher priority in stereochemical rankings? The answer lies in how chemists handle isotopes when applying rules like the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog (CIP) system.
Deuterium (D) is given higher priority than hydrogen (H) because of its greater mass.Although hydrogen and deuter游戏副本
