What is another word for isomeric?

Pronunciation: [ˌa͡ɪsə͡ʊmˈɛɹɪk] (IPA)

Isomeric refers to compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural arrangement of atoms. When discussing isomeric compounds, it can be helpful to have alternative words to use. Synonyms for isomeric include: isomorphous, stereo-isomeric, enantiomeric, and diastereomeric. Isomorphous is often used to describe compounds with the same crystal structure but different chemical compositions. Stereo-isomeric refers to compounds with the same atomic connectivity but different 3D spatial arrangements of atoms. Enantiomeric compounds are mirror images of each other. Finally, diastereomeric compounds are stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other. Understanding the differences between these synonyms can help to communicate more precisely when discussing isomeric compounds.

Usage examples for Isomeric

So also chemists have discovered that the same kind and the same number of chemical atoms may be arranged in different ways and thus become entirely different things in their properties, though the materials are unchanged; such "isomeric compounds" are among the most interesting of modern chemical discoveries; the arrangement of similar atoms under different ideas gives different bodies.
