A Topological Account of Chirality

Summary: | Graph invariants may differentiate structural isomers but are inappropriate to account for stereoisomerism and to distinguish between chiral structures. This work is an attempt to address this problem. A chiral function F satisfying condition F(D) = −F(L), where d and l denote enantiomers of the same structure, has been applied in combination with Randić's index 1χv. The resulting index χc was used to explain the variance in thin-layer chromatographic retention indices. |
