1 Macromolecules

2 Carbon Carbon atoms can form diverse molecules by bonding to four other atoms

3 Isomers Structural = Difference in covalent bonds
Cis-trans = Difference in arrangement around double bond Enantiomers = Difference in shape due to the presence of an asymmetric carbon

4 Pharmacological Enantiomers
