| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:23 | comment | added | user14857 | @Martin-マーチン So say even a carbon containing two H should be considered prochiral? | |
| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:19 | comment | added | Martin - マーチン♦ | No, I am referring to all carbons. There is not a bit of symmetry in that compound. | |

| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:14 | comment | added | user14857 | @Martin-マーチン You are correct.S should not be prochiral here.I guess you are referring to the double bonded carbons? | |
| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:13 | comment | added | user14857 | @orthocresol Thanks.I get you.But what about the double bonded carbons? | |
| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:12 | comment | added | Martin - マーチン♦ | Well, sulfur is not carbon. You should consider any carbon that could be a chiral centre with one conversion. Hint: Almost all of them are. | |
| Sep 14, 2016 at 7:12 | comment | added | orthocresol | The S atom is already chiral. | |
