Chirality Made Simple: A 1 - and 2-Dimensional Introduction to Stereochemistry
Gawley, Robert E.
Journal of Chemical Education, v82 n7 p1009-1012 Jul 2005
The introduction of chirality in one and two dimensions, along with the concepts of internal and external reflection, can be combined with concepts familiar to all students. Once familiar with 1-Dimensional and 2-Dimensional chirality, the same concepts can be extended to 3-Dimensional and by projecting 3-D back to two, it is possible to interpret 3-D chirality in the more comfortable space of two dimensions.
