Prochirality is a concept in stereochemistry that refers to the relationship of certain molecules to their enantiomers—the non-superimposable mirror images that are characteristic of chiral molecules. A molecule is considered prochiral if it can become chiral through a single reaction or transformation, typically by the substitution of one of its identical substituents or functional groups.
