11. (S)-isobutylphenylpropionic acid was synthesized utilizing an enzymatic reduction. This reaction however yielded both the R and the S version of this compound. When the species were analyzed they gave an optical rotation of +12.5°. The concentration and path length used were 0.50g/mL. and 1.Odm. Given that in order for this compound to be pure the literature rotation was +36 what is the enantiomeric excess? And how much of the compound is in solution? 1. 69% and 84.5% 2. 46%...
