Study and specification of the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms and its consequences for identity, reactivity, and properties.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Stereochemistry studies distinctions arising from three-dimensional arrangement within a fixed or explicitly related connectivity.
A more specific theory, model, entity class, or regime is obtained by restricting or extending the scope of a broader framework.

The resolved tartrate crystals connected macroscopic optical activity to asymmetric molecular arrangement and materially motivated molecular stereochemistry.
The source experiment, observation, anomaly, or problem materially motivated the development, revision, or acceptance of the target concept. Historical influence is not logical derivation; the edge detail states the documented role and avoids retrospective origin myths.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Molecular chirality is a central stereochemical property defined by symmetry rather than by one particular asymmetric atom.
The target is a member or subtype of the broader source class.

Chemical shifts, scalar couplings, dipolar effects, and exchange behavior can support stereochemical assignments when conformational averaging and model ambiguity are assessed.
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.
