Question

How to draw fischer projections from line structures?

Answer 1

Answer:

1. In a Fischer projection, the carbon atom with the highest oxidation state should be closer to the top than the bottom.

• In a Fischer projection, the carbon atom with the highest oxidation state should be closer to the top than the bottom.In cases where the highest oxidation state is in the centre or where multiple carbons have the same highest oxidation state, the second-highest applies analogously and so forth.
