Study Notes
Enantiomeric Excess (ee)
- Enantiomeric excess (ee) is used to quantify the difference when a mixture contains more of one enantiomer than the other.
- ee is expressed as ((percentage of R enantiomer - 50) × 100) / 50.
Exercises
- A mixture containing 60% R enantiomer and 40% S enantiomer has a 20% enantiomeric excess of R.
- In a sample of carvone, if the optical rotation is (-)23° and the specific rotation of (S)-carvone is (+)61°, the enantiomer in excess is S, and its ee is 63.3%.
- The percentage of (R)-carvone is 18.5%, and (S)-carvone is 81.5%.
- If the specific rotation of (S)-(+)2-bromobutane is +23.1° and a sample has an observed specific rotation of +9.2°, its optical purity is 40%.
- A mixture of 3g of (+)-2-bromobutane and 2g of (–)-2-bromobutane has a rotation of +12.21°.
Geometric Isomers
- In an alkene, if hydrogens are on the same side of the double bond, it is the cis isomer; if they are on opposite sides, it is the trans isomer.
- The cis-trans system can be unreliable and may not always work; it is safer to start from scratch in each case.
Heterocyclic Compounds
- Heterocyclic compounds contain heteroatoms like nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur within the fused ring structure.
- They can have unique properties and reactivities.
Stereochemistry
- Stereochemistry is the study of stereoisomers, which are isomers with atoms connected in the same way but differing in spatial arrangement.
- Optical isomers contain chirality centers, where a carbon atom is bonded to four different atoms or groups of atoms.
- A carbon atom bonded to four different atoms or groups of atoms is known as a chirality center or stereogenic center.
Polarimeter and Specific Rotation
- A polarimeter is an instrument that measures the amount an optically active compound rotates plane-polarized light.
- Specific rotation is the number of degrees of rotation caused by a solution of 1.0 g of the compound per mL of solution in a sample tube 1.0 dm long at a specified temperature and wavelength.
Heterocyclic and Aromatic Compounds
- Heterocyclic compounds have rings made of carbon atoms and one or more heteroatoms like oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus.
- Aromatic compounds contain a benzene ring structure and exhibit unique stability due to resonance.
- Polynuclear compounds, also known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, are organic compounds composed of two or more benzene rings that are fused together.
Unique Properties of Carbon
- Carbon forms a large number of compounds due to its unique properties:
- Tetravalency of carbon
- Ability to form double or multiple bonds with another carbon
- Strong covalent bonds with other elements like nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, halogens, and phosphorus
