2.10 g of an unknown compound was dissolved in 15.00 mL of ethanol. The sample was placed in a 10.0 cm cell in a polarimeter and the angle of rotation was determined to be -18.48°. What is the specific rotation of this unknown (show work) and specify if the compound is levorotatory or dextrorotatory?

The compound [14]-annulene shows only two 'H NMR signals - one at ~0 ppm and the other ~7.6 ppm. Using benzene as a model for diamagnetic anisotropy, which of the following is expected to be true for the 'H signals of {14}-annulene as shown to the right? [Note: coding here is Red = outer H's, Blue = inner H's] H H' H H a. The blue are 7.6 ppm and the blue are 0 ppm b. The red are 7.6 ppm and the red are 0 ppm c. Some of the red and some of the blue give rise to each signal d. The inner protons of all annulenes form an H-bonding complex called the diagmagnetic quatro-orbitrap that always shows a signal at ~8 ppm. e. More information is needed
