Well yes, it does have to have chirality, I just meant it doesn’t have to contain any specific elements.
I’m definitely no expert, but isn’t the D/L notation used in all of chemistry? Sometimes it’s written Δ/Λ, but that’s the same thing. Doesn’t it just describe a molecule’s geometry in a different way from R/S?
These terms can describe any molecule, btw, doesn’t have to contain carbon
Not any molecule, it’s gotta be able to have stereoisomers in the first place. There’s no R or S water for example. D/L notation is for biology.
