B. The Polarimeter
A polarimeter is the instrument used to measure the rotation of
plane polarized light by an optically active compound.
C. Specific Rotation
Specific rotation is a physical property of an optically active
compound. The specific rotation of plane polarized light by an optically
active compound is the observed rotation to the left, levorotatory (l, -) or
to the right, dextrorotatory (d,+) divided by the length of the sample
tube in decimeters and the concentration of the sample in g/cm3.

priority is directed away from the observer. The remaining three groups
are in a plane and are visualized from highest to lowest priority. If in
visualizing from the highest priority group to next highest, the eye moves
clockwise, the configuration is R; if the eye moves counterclockwise,
the configuration is S .

(b) This molecule can be drawn so that the top and bottom halves are
identically constituted thus allowing for 180 o rotation to test for
superimposability. There is one pair of enantiomers and one meso structure. B
when rotated 180o is superimposable on A, its mirror image. Thus A is a meso
structure. C and D are not superimposable and are enantiomers.

7.32 Stereoisomerism and Chemical Reactions: Section 7.8
In the first example a chiral carbon is generated in a compound that previously
had none. The newly generated methyl can be above or below the ring but it
makes no difference in terms of path of attack or stability of product. A pair of
enantiomers is formed in equal amounts.

The second compound already has a chiral carbon atom. When the new one is
generated, a pair of diastereomers is formed in unequal amounts. An
examination of the diastereomers compared to the enantiomers can explain the
production of enantiomers in equal amounts and diastereomers in unequal
amounts. In one diastereomer, the newly generated methyl is on the same side
of the ring as the existing methyl, a less stable cis arrangement.. The two larger
groups are on opposite sides in the other, a more stable trans arrangement. The
products are of unequal stability and it is understandable they are formed in
177

unequal amounts. The enantiomers are of equal stability and formed in equal
amounts. Identical paths of reaction in the first reaction and different ones in the
second also support the difference in product ratio.

The middle carbon is common to both rings. Since it is tetrahedral, one ring will
be in the plane of the paper and other perpendicular (in and out of the paper).
The H and Cl on the ring in and out of the paper are above and below the ring
and thus in the plane of the paper. Those on the other ring are in front of and
behind the paper plane. One cannot superimpose both rings and the Cls (or
Hs) simultaneously.

Since the middle carbon is involved in both double bonds, it has two p-orbitals
which are perpendicular (90) to each other. Thus the two pi-bonds are in
perpendicular planes. Consequently, the Hs and Cls on each end are in
perpendicular planes. No amount of rotating or turning the molecules will allow
the simultaneous superimposition of both chlorines.
