prochiraladj.

Brit.

/prəʊˈkʌɪrəl/,

/prəʊˈkʌɪrl̩/, U.S.

/proʊˈkaɪr(ə)l/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: pro- prefix², chiral adj.

Etymology: < pro- prefix² + chiral adj.

Chemistry.

Designating a molecule which is not chiral but can become so by means of a simple reaction such as a substitution. Also: designating an atom or group at which such a reaction can produce a chiral structure.

1966 K. Hanson in Jrnl. Amer. Chem. Soc. 87 2733 As D comes before E and F in the operation, it is convenient to apply the adjective prochiral to D.

1995 R. S. Atkinson Stereoselective Synthesis i. 9 A prochiral double bond in an addition reaction is one in which one or two chiral sp³ centres are formed and the addition product itself is chiral.
