Why isn't the nitrogen in this molecule a chiral center?
Why isn't the Nitrogen here a stereogenic center? It has a lone pair, two different carbon chains, and a hydrogen. Do lone pairs not count as groups like they do with hybridization? What am I missing? I've tried to read up on this and the internet mentions some sort of exception about stereogenic nitrogens, but now I'm just confused.
