If a mixture of (R) and (S)-Limonene Acid gives a %ee of 80.35% favoring the R 6. enantiomer, use this to calculate the ratio of R to S Limonene (review Example 3 in the procedure for how to do this) Page 2 of 2
a)The optical rotation of a sample of 2-butanol is measured to be αobs = -0.35º. The specific rotation for pure (+)-2-butanol is [α]D = 13.52° ml/g dm. If the cell path length was 0.6 dm and the concentration of 2-butanol in the sample was 0.15 g/ml, calculate the specific rotation and the percentage of the (+) and (-) isomers in your sample. b)You have a sample that you know is composed of 21% R isomer and 79% S isomer. What...
Please help with pre-lab questions.
Pre-Lab Questions: 1. A sample of 2-butanol has a specific rotation of +3.25. Determine the optical purity (%ee) and percent composition of this sample (see Mohrig section 17.4). The specific rotation of pure (+)-2-butanol is +13.0°. 2. The equation for the formation of the diastereomeric salts is shown in the background information (performed in Part A of the procedure). Write this chemical equation in your notebook, then ALSO write a balanced equation for the formation...
