Definitions:

Achiral

Lacking chirality; not having a non-superimposable mirror image.

Asymmetric Carbon

An asymmetric carbon, also known as a chiral carbon, is a carbon atom that is attached to four different groups, making its mirror image not superimposable on itself.

R or S

A system for specifying the configuration of chiral centers in molecules, based on the CIP (Cahn-Ingold-Prelog) priority rules.

Asymmetric Carbon

A carbon atom bonded to four different atoms or groups, making it a center of chirality and pivotal in the study of stereochemistry.
