  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001557",
  "term": "C. I. P. system",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A set of rules, named after Cahn, Ingold, and Prelog, used to assign absolute configurations (R or S) to chiral centers in molecules and to specify the E/Z configuration of double bonds. This system establishes a priority order for substituents around a stereocenter based on atomic number. The C.I.P. system is universally adopted in stereochemistry for unambiguous nomenclature.",
