Sulfoxide stereochemistry #17

Closed rapodaca closed 2 years ago

rapodaca commented 3 years ago

A suggestion:

C[S@](=O)Cl means C[S@"LP"](O)Cl - that is, the lone pair, oxygen and chlorine appear anticlockwise from the carbon.

It's a possibly useful idea, but only provided that all issues can be resolved. If they can't then Stereochemistry should explicitly disallow the interpretation.
