   Epimer
   In chemistry, epimers are diastereomers that differ in configuration of only one stereogenic center. Diastereomers are a class of stereoisomers that are non-superposable, non-mirror images of one another. In chemical nomenclature, one of the epimeric pairs is given the prefix epi- for example in qu...
