Chapter 7.6, Problem 4E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The value for the specific rotation of optical pure 1-phenylethaneamine needs to be determined. Also, the optical purity of the sample of the resolved amine for which a rotation is obtained needs to be calculated.

Concept Introduction :

If a solution is capable of rotating the plane of polarized light, it is said to be an optical active solution and this capability is known as an optical activity.

What will be the optical rotation of a mixture of equal portions of (+)-MTPA and its enantiomer?
Many studies have shown that one specific enantiomer of citalopram (“S”) is the one capable of inhibition of serotonin reuptake. Lexapro is the brand name for the purified form of the S- enantiomer of citalopram. Explain briefly why Lexapro would be more expensive than Celexa.
The following data was collected for this experiment: A sample of 0.8281 g of phenylsuccinic acid was dissolved in 10 mL of acetone. This sample gave a reading, aobs, of +10.278 deg on the polarimeter. A tube measuring 1 dm was used for the sample. Calculate the enantiomeric excess (EE) of the sample. The literature-specific rotation, [a]lit, of phenylsuccinic acid in acetone is 173 deg. Give your answer to 3 significant figures. Calculate the percent (%) of (+)-phenylsuccinic acid that is in this sample. Give your answer to 3 significant figures. Calculate the percent (%) of (-)-phenylsuccinic acid that is in this sample. Give your answer to 3 significant figures.
