Adjective[edit]
racemo (not comparable)
- (chemistry, dated, proscribed) Of a tactic diad, having structural units in opposition.
Usage notes[edit]
As the adjectives "racemic" and "nonracemic" apply to whole molecules, not structural units, "racemo" is considered misleadingly imprecise and was formally proscribed in 2019; modern usage is to write just "r", formerly an abbreviation for "racemo".
Antonyms[edit]
