What is another word for quasienantiomer?
Pronunciation: [kwˈe͡ɪza͡ɪənˌantɪəmə] (IPA) 
Quasienantiomer is a term commonly used in the field of chemistry to describe a molecule that is structurally similar to its mirror image, but not exactly the same. Some common synonyms for this term include diastereomer, epimer, and stereoisomer. Diastereomers are stereoisomers that have different configurations at one or more stereocenters, while epimers are diastereomers that differ only in the configuration of one stereocenter. Stereoisomers are molecules with the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms, but different spatial arrangements. These terms are often used interchangeably, but they each have subtle differences in their definition and application. Regardless of the synonym used, understanding the properties and behavior of quasienantiomers is crucial in various applications such as drug development and organic synthesis.
