Chapter 25, Problem 92AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The planes of symmetry and the stereoisomeric relationship are to be identified in the given compounds.

Concept introduction:

The ability of certain substances to rotate the plane of the plane-polarized light, as it passes through a crystal, liquid, or solution, is known as optical activity.

The rotation of the polarized light could be in clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

If the rotation of the polarized light will be in clockwise, it is dextrorotatory.

If the rotation of the polarized light will be in counterclockwise, it is leavorotatory. An imaginary plane that divides the molecule into two mirror-image halves is known as the plane of symmetry.

When isomeric molecules contain the same molecular formula but different arrangement of atoms in a three-dimensional space, it is known as stereoisomer.

When isomeric molecules have the same molecular formula but differ in bonding patterns and atomic organization, they are known as constitutional isomers.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
2. (a) Define and give one example of a geometry that is coordinatively unsaturated. (b) Define and give one example of a geometry that can be stereochemically non-rigid.
Why are these two conformational isomers? I was under the impression that in molecules with only sigma bonds, the bonds can rotate freely, and so the placement of the chlorines wouldn't matter?
(a) Draw the nine isomers having the formula C7H16 . (Hint: There is one structure with a seven-carbon chain, two structures with six-carbon chains [one is illustrated in the margin above], five structures with a five-carbon chain, and one structure with a fourcarbon chain.)(b) Identify the isomers of C7H16 that are chiral.
