epimer
ep·i·mer E5183150 (ĕp′ə-mər)n. One of two molecules that differ in the spatial arrangement of atoms or groups surrounding only one of two or more chiral atoms in the structure. [epi- + -mer, isomer.]epimer (ɪˈpɪməˌrɪzəm) chemn (Chemistry) either of two optical isomers differing from each other only in the configuration of the atoms about one asymmetric carbon atomn (Chemistry) either of two isomers differentiated by the position of the atoms around a single asymmetric carbon atomTranslationsepimer
epimer[′ep·ə·mər] (organic chemistry) A type of isomer in which the difference between the two compounds is the relative position of the H (hydrogen) group and OH (hydroxyl) group on the last asymmetric C (carbon) atom of the chain, as in the sugarsD-glucose andD-mannose. epimer
