ОН enzyme C;H1 `OCH,CH; pH 4.0 C3H1 `OCH,CH3 ОН ÕH X (racemic) (100% yield) One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme. The other enantiomer of compound X is unreactive, but rapidly equilibrates with the reactive enantiomer under the reaction conditions. Since compound X was racemic, it makes sense that only a single product was obtained. O The product is a meso compound, so either enantiomer of compound X gives the same product. One enantiomer of compound X reacts quickly with the enzyme, while the other enantiomer of compound X remains unchanged.arrow_forward
