Chiral molecules usually contain at least one carbon atom with four nonidentical substituents. Such a carbon atom is called a chiral center (or stereogenic center). Any molecule that contains a chiral center will be chiral. An asymmetric or chiral carbon atom is a carbon atom that is attached to four different types of atoms or groups of atoms.
