Question
Chapter 3, Problem 3.35P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Optical activity of the given compound has to be checked when there is restricted rotation along the central carbon-carbon bond and also optical rotation at elevated temperatures when the rotation becomes less restricted has to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
Atropisomers:
Stereoisomers that occur when rotation around a central carbon-carbon bond is sufficient to allow isolation of individual conformers are called as an atropisomers.
