What is the observed rotation when `0.1 M` solutions of `(R )-2` butanol is mixed with an equal volume of `0.05M` solution of recemic `2-butnol` and the resulting solution is taken in a cell of `5cm` long tube in a polarimeter? The specific rotation of `(R -2)` butonal is `+13.9^(@)`

Answer» The racemic `2-` butanol has no contribution to optical activity. So the observed rotation will be due ot `(R )-2` butanol. Only Racemic butanol helps in diluting the solution. Therefore, the concentration of `(R )-2` butanol after dilution is `0.05M`. Molecular weight of `2-` butnol is `74`.

a. The specific rotation of a pure enantiomer is `+10^(@)`. What will be its observed rotation if its is isolated from a reaction with i. `30%` racemisation and `70%` retention. ii. `70%` racemisation and `30%` inversion. b. What is the percentage composition of a mixtrue of two enantiomers whose rotation is `-10^(@)`? The specific rotation of pure enantiomers is `-20^(@)`. c. What is the optical purity of a sample having an `[alpha]_(obs.)=+9.0^(@)` if `[alpha]_(D)=+12^(@)`.

Answer» a. i. `[alpha]_(obs.)= 0.70xx(+10^(@))= +7.0^(@)`
ii. `30%` inversion, with inversion specific rotation is `(-10^(@))`.
`:. [alpha]_(obs.)=0.30 xx (-10^(@)) = -3.0^(@)`
b. Optical purity `(OP)` of sample `=([alpha]_(obs.))/([alpha]_(D))`
`= (-10^(@)xx100)/(-20^(@))=50%`
So, `50%` of the mixtrue consists of `(-)` enantiomer and `50%` is the racemate [i.e., `25% (+)` and `25%(-)` form]
Total percentage of `(-)` form `= 50%+25%=75%`
Total percentage of `(+)` form `=25%`
c. Optical purity `(OP)` of sample `=(+9^(@))/(+12^(@))xx100= 75%`
The mixtrue has `75% (+)` and `25%` racemic mixtrue [i.e., `12.5%(+)` and `12.5%(-)` form]
Total percentage of `(+)` form `=75%+(25%)/(2)= 87.5%`
Total percentage of `(-)` form `=12.5%`
