Question
Chapter 7.6, Problem 2E
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The number of stereochemically distinct salts formed needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The carbon atoms containing 4 different groups attached to it are chiral carbon. Depending on the configuration they can be classified as ( R ) and ( S ). In the R configuration, the arrangement of the priority group is in clockwise direction on the other hand, in the S configuration the arrangement of the priority group is in the anticlockwise direction.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The stereochemical relationship between the products formed in the reaction needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The type isomers which are non-superimposable non-mirror image of each other are known as diastereomers. On the other hand, the isomers which are non-superimposable mirror image of each other are known as enantiomers.
(c)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The pair of salts that can be separated by crystallization needs to be determined. Also, the pairs that are inseparable need to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The type isomers which are non-superimposable non-mirror image of each other are known as diastereomers. On the other hand, the isomers which are non-superimposable mirror image of each other are known as enantiomers.
