Solution

Chiral Centre:

  • A chiral centre is an atom with four distinct groups covalently bound to it in such a way that their mirror images cannot be superimposed.
  • Nowadays, "chirality centers" are sometimes referred to as "chiral centers."
  • The term "chiral" or "stereocenter" refers to an asymmetric item that cannot be overlaid over its mirror counterpart. Chirality is the name given to this quality.

Structure of Peptide lie-Arg-Pro:

  • The total number of chiral Carbon is 4 in Peptide lie-Arg-Pro.

Hence, The Chiral Carbon is 4.
