Someone please help me with this problem
Enantiomers have very similar physical properties,
while for diastereomers they can be very different. This fact is
important in the separation or resolution of enantiomers. In the
lecture, we looked at how chiral chromatography is used to separate
enantiomers: first, by reacting them with an optically pure chiral
reagent (i.e., pure R or S) to form a pair of diastereomers, then
separating them using chiral chromatography, and finally detaching
the chiral reagent to recover the now-separated enantiomers. An
alternative but less common means of separating the diastereomers
is replacing the chiral chromatography step with distillation.
Recall that distillation separates solution components based on
their differences in boiling points (a physical property).
An excess of a racemic mixture of 2-chloropropanoic acid is reacted
with ( S)-2-methyl-1-butanol, converting it to the ester
2-methylbutyl 2-chloropropanoate. As part of the problem, no wedges
or hashed bonds are shown.
The reaction mixture is then subjected to careful distillation. Three fractions are obtained, and two of them are optically active. (Actually, in reality, all three fractions will be optically active, but for this problem we may choose to ignore this fact.) What compound or compounds constitute each of these fractions?

Enantiomers have the same physical properties and cannot be separated using typical laboratory methods. One method of separating a racemic mixture is to use chiral column chromatography. Select the true statements below. There are 2 true statements. 1. the column converts one of the enantiomers to the other 2.a chiral solvent is used in chiral chromatography 3.a chiral absorbant is used in chiral chromatography 4.one enantiomer will elute faster than the other
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...
A. Enantiomers: Certain substances have the unique property of rotating the plane of plane-polarized light. Such light rotation is detectable with the aid of a polarimeter. In order for a molecule to be optically active it must be chiral. Chiral objects lack a plane of symmetry and are non-superimposable on their mirror images. A sp?- hybridized carbon atom can fulfill these requirements if all four of its substituents are different. 1. Methane a) Prepare a methane molecule and then substitute...

Experiment Write Up Proposal You will write up a synthesis procedure for one reaction that could be potentially run in a face- to-face Chem 2321 lab session. Your proposal will include an introduction and procedure. The procedure will include step-by-step instructions for running the reaction (including reaction monitoring), work-up. (product isolation and purification), and analysis (characterization). You will need to include sample calculations for percent yield and provide sample spectra analysis. You must upload your proposal as a single document...
