Diastereomorphism

  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003139",
  "term": "Diastereomorphism",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The relationship between two objects or models that parallels the relationship between diastereoisomeric molecules: they are stereo-related but neither identical nor mirror images of each other. The word is the object-level counterpart of diastereoisomerism, as enantiomorphism is for enantiomers. It is not the same as diastereotopism, which describes atoms or groups within a single molecule.",
