Properties

• Range: DLConfigurationEnum

Aliases

• D/L configuration
• absolute configuration

Comments

• Distinct from the absolute_configuration slot, which carries a free-text Cahn-Ingold-Prelog (R/S) descriptor and applies per stereocentre. A single sugar has one D/L assignment but an R/S descriptor at each of its stereocentres
