Absolute configuration of allenes is determined by the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog (CIP) priority rules, where the highest priority group is assigned to the highest atomic number attached to the central carbon. If the highest priority groups on both ends point in the same direction, it is R-configuration, and if they point in opposite directions, it is S-configuration. Rotating the molecule to align the priorities correctly can help determine the absolute configuration of allenes.
