Enantiomers are a type of stereoisomer that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. These molecules have the same molecular formula and connectivity of atoms but differ in their three-dimensional arrangement. Enantiomers typically occur in chiral molecules, which possess a carbon atom bonded to four different substituents, leading to two distinct spatial configurations.
