The specific rotation of the pure (S) form of Ivermectin is +85.0° when measured using light with a 500 nm wavelength. Ivermectin is an expensive component of a popular COVID treatment called NO-FX. To save money, the Trumpharm company makes NO-FX by mixing inexpensive racemic Ivermectin with some enantiomerically pure Ivermectin. A 1.3 g sample of NO-FX is dissolved in 6.0 mL of CHCl3. When placed in a 1 cm cell, the observed rotation at 500 nm is -0.6°. a) What is the specific rotation of the sample? b) Which isomer is in excess and how do you know it is in excess? c) What is the optical purity of the sample?
