Question

please give appropriate definition of inversion of configuration and retention of configuration.
plz give ans fast. it's too much urgent.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

• if the net charge of a reaction is a replacement of a ligand on a chiral centre in a reactant and if, in the product , the replacement ligand occupies the site opposite to that occupied by the replaced ligand in the reactant..then the reactant is said to occur with inversion of configuration

and retention of configuration is a preservation of integrity of the spatial arrangement of bonds to an chiral centre during a chemical reaction or transformation
