Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The effect on the given enantiomeric resolution by the given condition is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as the chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers. The chiral atom sometimes results in the formation of enantiomers which are the non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
(b)
Interpretation:
The effect on the given enantiomeric resolution by the given condition is to be stated.
