Σύνοψη	Functional group identification is the systematic determination of chemical functional groups present in organic molecules using spectroscopic, chemical, and structural data. Developed throughout the 20th century alongside spectroscopy and analytical chemistry, this methodology enables rapid structure elucidation by focusing on reactive moieties (alcohols, aldehydes, carboxylic acids, amines, etc.) rather than complete structure determination.	Stereochemistry analysis is the systematic study of three-dimensional molecular structures, with emphasis on determining the spatial arrangement of atoms around chiral centers and assigning unambiguous names to stereoisomers. Formalized by Cahn, Ingold, and Prelog in 1966, the CIP (Cahn-Ingold-Prelog) rules provide an objective method for assigning R/S (or E/Z) nomenclature, enabling unambiguous communication of molecular structure.
