Source sentences:
text: Thalidomide is racemic; while R-thalidomide is the bioactive form of the molecule, the individual enantiomers can racemize to each other due to the acidic hydrogen at the chiral centre, which is the carbon of the glutarimide ring bonded to the phthalimide substituent.
text: Thalidomide exists in two mirror-image forms: it is a racemic mixture of (R)- and (S)-enantiomers.
text: The article now says Thalidomide is racemic; the individual enantiomers can racemize due to the acidic hydrogen at the chiral centre.
