The numbers in this table give a more detailed breakdown of the sp3 stereochemistry enhancements from Table 1. Here "OK" means a single, completely defined, compound. The "unspecified enantiomer" cases from Table 1 are split here between two "relative" stereochemistry cases, incompletely and completely defined. Note that not all "Completely defined – relative" cases need to be errors – a number of drugs may be racemic compounds.
