Chapter 15.7, Problem 15.18P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Whether CH3(CH2)6CH3 is optically active or not needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The ability of substances to rotate the plane of polarized light passes through it is defined as an optical activity of the substance. The molecules with chiral center or asymmetric in nature can show optical activity. Thus, the presence of the chiral center in the molecule is important in this case.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Whether the given molecule is optically active or not needs to be determined.

Label these peaks in H- NMR and C- NMR
Complete the following table. The only density needed is already given. Show your calculations in a neat and easy-to-follow manner in the space below the table. All units should be included and significant figures should be given close attention. Be sure to notice that the amount of material should be in millimoles rather than moles, and the theoretical mass of the product should in milligrams rather than grams.
