sir thank u for this great vdo.... my teacher teaches many short cut method for this[only to get the right ans] but i can not remember them because he didn't teach us how to look at the structures ,. now i don't have to mug up my head with tricks ....now i understand it...so i will not forget it.. thank u soooo much sir
sir thanks a lot for the video,I have a doubt sir if we just turn our top of head,the structure formed ,would it be wrong to say it as the enantiomer of original one??? I hope u will answer!!!
Tushar Tapase Turning the top of your head to one of the other "ends" of the molecule wouldn't generate the enantiomer-only exchanging groups can do that! :-) Changing your viewpoint would only rotate the Fisher projection. Thanks for watching!
So for the second example, if I got the R/S configuration correct in the fischer projection, with CH3 on the vertical line, but the HS is on the top line and the Br is on the bottom line, would this be an accurate fischer projection compared to yours? This is the part that confuses me. In other words, I believe I am doing a 180 degree rotation.
Sure, but this would lead to a different-looking but equivalent (equally correct) zig-zag representation. The key is to choose an orientation for the "head" and apply it consistently!
To some extent, this is based on convention...it's important to orient the eye so that horizontal bonds point toward it and vertical bonds away from it. However, what you put at the top and bottom is often up to you. In Fischer projections of monosaccharides, the carbonyl/hemiacetal carbon is usually placed on top by convention.
C shape! Nobody mentioned 🥲 I was confused about how to draw the fisher projection of double chiral center. If the carbon backbone isn’t in c shape, it does not make sense so I had no idea how to draw the projection😩
Thank you so much!! 🧪⚛️ Watching from Ecuador. I'm a spanish speaker, but this explanation was better than in my language 🥹
I have watched 6 other videos on how to draw Fischer projections today, and yours was the only one that made it click for me! Thank-you!!!
Thanks for watching, Julia!
I second this!
Same, all very confusing!
Best video on this I’ve seen. Thanks for doing some more interesting examples and explaining clearly and visually

I hope God blesses you greatly for helping people like me! You deserve it!
Thanks, Stephanie! You're too kind!
really helpful , need such teachers all around for better understanding
This made it very clear. THank you
Thanks for watching!
very helpful, thank you!
Having my test on Sunday. Thank youuuuu, I was so stressed, atleast I have something down.
Really really helpful sir thank you
thank you so much!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
thank you for this
Thanks a lot!🙂🙃

How do we know where to draw the implied hydrogen?
Those Ps r hats?
Sir. Last examples is difficult to me
Do u have another easy trick
How do you know where the hat is supposed to go? If you looked at it the opposite direction, wouldnt you perceive it differently?
Sure, but this would lead to a different-looking but equivalent (equally correct) zig-zag representation. The key is to choose an orientation for the "head" and apply it consistently!
Nice video
Thanks! Nice rectum at the center of your pfp👍♥
how did you decide where to draw the eyeball?
To some extent, this is based on convention...it's important to orient the eye so that horizontal bonds point toward it and vertical bonds away from it. However, what you put at the top and bottom is often up to you. In Fischer projections of monosaccharides, the carbonyl/hemiacetal carbon is usually placed on top by convention.
this is so confusing goooood
Can I ask aqution about fisher projection?
Ask away!
yes Temim Kefir, you have my permission.
I want to appretioate you
i still dont understand :(
C shape!

Yep-people tend to gloss over the visualization and conformational issues with Fischer projections. It gets tricky!
