Abstract
The conventional stereochemistry is incapable of clarifying the difference between symmetry/asymmetry/pseudoasymmetry and chirality/achirality. Even though the terms of stereogenicity/astereogenicity are adopted in place of symmetry/asymmetry/pseudoasymmetry, the difference between the adopted terms and chirality/achirality cannot be clarified within the conventional stereochemistry. The concepts of RS-stereoisomeric groups and the corresponding stereoisograms are capable of integrating RS-stereogenicity/RS-astereogenicity and chirality/achirality.
