Taeko's origin and use are both in the Japanese language. The meaning of the name is 'child of many blessings'. Taeko is not frequently used as a baby girl name.
The most common stereocenters are chiral centers (such as asymmetric carbon atoms) and the double-bonded carbon atoms in cis-trans alkenes. A chiral center consists of an atom holding a set of ligands (atoms or groups of atoms) in a spatial arrangement which is not superposable on its mirror image.ost chiral molecules have a chiral carbon, though the presence of a chiral carbon does not necessarily make a molecule chiral (see meso compound). A chiral carbon is often denoted by C*. If the carbon is chiral, it follows that: 1  the carbon atom is sp 3 -hybridized;
In contrast, stereoselectivity is the property of a reactant mixture where a non-stereospecific mechanism allows for the formation of multiple products, but where one (or a subset) of the products is favored by factors, such as steric access, that are independent of the mechanism.he addition of singlet carbenes to alkenes is stereospecific in that the geometry of the alkene is preserved in the product. For example, dibromocarbene and cis -2-butene yield cis -2,3-dimethyl-1,1-dibromocyclopropane, whereas the trans isomer exclusively yields the trans cyclopropane.
