N-Methylpyrrolidine has a boiling point of 81 °C, and piperidine has a boiling point of 106 °C. Explain the large difference (25 °C) in the boiling point for these two isomers.
Lipases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of esters, especially esters of
glycerol. Because enzymes are chiral catalysts, they catalyze the hydrolysis of only
one enantiomer of a racemic mixture. For example, porcine pancreatic lipase catalyzes
the hydrolysis of only one enantiomer of the following racemic epoxyester. Calculate
the number of grams of epoxyalcohol that can be obtained from 100 g of racemic
epoxyester by this method."
