a)
Specific rotation of a compound is calculated as follows:
Where
at temperature of T=25 C.
Now, amount of the compound = 4.23 g
Volume of solution = 700.0 mL = 0.700 L =
Hence, Concentration C can be calculated as
The path length l is given as
The measured rotation is
Hence, we can calculate the specific rotation as follows:
Note that the specific rotation can be calculated in other units too. Generally the unit is dropped and only the degrees are mentioned.
b) (+)-OneRingToRuleThem has a specific rotation of
Observed specific rotation is related to the enantiomeric excess and the specific rotation of pure enantiomer as follows:
Our mixture is 25% (+) isomer and 75% (-) isomer.
Hence, the enantiomeric excess = 75%-25% = 50 % excess of (-) isomer.
Hence, we take specific rotation of for the pure compound.
Hence, we can calculate the observed rotation as
c)
Here, we have 50% (+) isomer and 50% (-) isomer. If (+) isomer rotates the light clockwise, the (-) isomer will rotate the light counterclockwise by the same amount. Hence, they will cancel the effect of each other.
Hence, net observed rotation will be .
Note: doing the calculation with enantiomeric excess of 0 will give the same answer.
d)
Here, we have 66.7% of (+) isomer and 33.3 % of (-) isomer.
Hence, enantiomeric excess is
66.7-33.3 = 33.4 % of (+) isomer.
Hence, the observed rotation can be calculated as
