| Dec 20, 2018 at 9:36 | comment | added | Alchimista | Adesh: Then you have to speak about a structural part of a molecule or even its whole. Not about a C atom. And strictly speaking @Ivan Neretin is correct. A single atom can be seen at best as a chiral center. | |

| Dec 19, 2018 at 17:48 | comment | added | Oscar Lanzi | Then strictly we do not have sp2 hybridization. You have to allow some latitude in the interpretation, | |
