Students have asked these similar questions
Could you crystallize one enantiomer of mandelic acid from a racemic mixture (using
the typical achiral solvents found in our lab) without preparing a diastereomeric
salt? Why or why not?
No, because both enantiomers have the same solubility in achiral
solvents. than the other.
ооо
Yes, because one enantiomer has a higher melting point
No, because both enantiomers are liquids.
Yes, because one enantiomer is more crystalline than the other.
If the literature value of specific rotation for a chiral compound is -53.6°, what
is the enantiomeric excess of a compound with a measured specific rotation of
-40.5°?
The process to determine the configuration, starts by placing the lowest priority
substituent toward the back.
If the substituents pointing forward decrease in priority in a clockwise order, the
configuration is S. If the substituents decrease in priority in a counterclockwise order,
the configuration is R.
True
False
