2) You isolate limonene from your orange peel via steam distillation, and measure the optical rotation. Your sample has an optical rotation of [a]200 = +77.3°, but the literature value of R- (+)-limonene is [a]20° = +115.5°. What is the most likely reason for the discrepancy?
Draw all stereoisomers of 3,4-hexanediamine. Label each sterocenter with the appropriate R/S designation to show hardness. Indicate the relationship(enantiomers or diasteromers) between every possible pairing of compounds. Label each compound as chiral or achiral, and if there is a mess compound, label it as such.one of these compound has a specific rotation of +6.9 degrees. Which compound might this be?

The specific angle of rotation of (R)-2-bromobutane is -23.1°. Treatment of (R)-2-bromobutane with potassium bromide produces a racemic mixture of (R)- and (S)-2-bromobutane, which is optically inactive. The rate at which the product's angle of rotation decreases is directly proportional to the concentration of KBr. Does this suggest that the reaction takes place by an SN1 or an SŅ2 mechanism? Explain.
