meso (not comparable)

1. (chemistry, dated, proscribed) Of a tactic diad, having structural units in identical orientation.

As the adjectives "racemic" and "nonracemic" apply to whole molecules, not structural units, the coordinate term "racemo" was considered misleadingly imprecise, and "racemo" and "meso" were formally proscribed in 2019; modern usage is to write just "m", formerly an abbreviation for "meso".
