Problem 2. Stereochemistry (30 points). Within each set of stereoisomers shown below determine whether the isomer is chiral (optically active) or achiral (optically inactive). Identify enantiomers, diastereomers, and isomers that are the same. For those that are chiral, determine the stereochemical configuration (R or S) at each chiral center.

3. Diastereomers and Meso Forms. When a molecule has two or more stereogenic centers, stereoisomers that are not mirror images can exist; these are called diastereoisomers. Within this general class, there are special types of stereoisomers that are always optically inactive and are called meso forms. Construct a model with four different colored balls about a carbon center. Construct another identical to the first and verify this by the superimposition test. Now remove the same colored balls, blue (C from...

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...

How to properly solve these elimination and addition
reactions
Elimination and Addition reactions Purpose: Figuring out the ways that molecules react is the province of the mechanistic chemist. By understanding the mechanisms of reactions, the chemist can manipulate the experimental variables to favor one product over another. This element of control is the province of the synthetic organic chemist. This Workshop continues to explore how we know how molecules react and how this knowledge leads to control of the products....
