Isomers

Compounds with the same chemical formula but different arrangements of atoms, leading to different properties.

Isomerism

The phenomenon where compounds with the same molecular formula have different structures and properties.

Stereoisomers

Isomers that differ only in the spatial arrangement of atoms around a chiral center.

Enantiomers

Isomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
