Interconversion of the two forms of thalidomide takes place in aqueous media. This mechanism involves a type of rearrangement called epimerizutio (the isomerization at a single chiral center). 8 In this epimerization, the water molecules present are acting as a(n) Nucleophile Electrophile Bransted Base Bronsted Acid
