Optically pure `(S)-(+)`-2bromo octane `[alpha]_(D)^(25^(@)C)=+36^(@)`, react with aqueous NaOH in acetone to give optically pure `(R)-(-)`-2-octanol `[alpha]_(D)^(25^(@)C)` `=-10.3^(@)`. With partially racemized bromo compound whose `[alpha]_(D)^(25^(@)C)`=30^(@)`, the `[alpha]_(D)^(25^(@)` of the alcohol product is - `6.0^(@)`. Calculate the per cent optical purity of partially racemized bromo compound :A. `58%`B. `83%`C. `70%`D. `30%` |
