Isomers - same molecular formula - different compounds constitutional isomers - different connectivity stereoisomers - same connectivity - different orientation in space (recall cis/trans)
Chirality handednessnot superposable on its mirror image types: planeimaginary plane through an object one half is the mirror image of the other symmetry = superposable center identical parts on an axis equidistant from a point
syn - plane of symmetry anti - point of symmetry . Elements of Symmetry Conformations of2,3-butanediol* . If symmetry is present, the substance is achiral. *meso or R,S (later)

common source of chirality - tetrahedral (sp3) carbon (atom) - bonded to 4 different groups Chiral Center chiral center- carbon (atom) with 4 different groups Enantiomers: stereoisomers nonsuperposable mirror images All chiral centers are stereocenters Not all stereocenters are chiral centers

increasing priority increasing priority R,S Convention - Priority rules Each atom bonded to the chiral center assigned a priority by atomic number higher atomic number, higher the priority Same atoms bonded to the chiral center look to the next set of atoms priority assigned to 1st point of difference
double (triple) bond atoms viewed as bonded to an equivalent number of atoms by single bonds R,S Convention
Naming Chiral Centers 1. Locate the chiral center, prioritize four substituents 1 (highest) to 4 (lowest) 2. Orient molecule so that lowest priority (4) group is directed away ( behind ) 3. Read three groups toward you (in front) (1) to (3) Clockwise R configuration; counterclockwise S

observed rotation:, degrees a compound rotates polarized light -dextrorotatory (+) right - levorotatory (-)left T specific rotation []D = S R Optical Activity ( )-(+)-lactic acid ( )-(-)-lactic acid
Example: 0.5g (-)-epinephrine-HCl in 10mL H2O measured in 20 cm cell (25o/D) obs = -5.0o, []D =? 25o R-enantiomer is (-); R or S above? [a] = deg (cm2g-1 )
Racemic mixture: equal amounts of (+) and (-) enantiomers - rotation is 0o Optical Activity For a 50/50 mixture of S and R, = ? 0o
21o (S)-(+)-2-bromobutane, []D=+23.1o 21o But from the obs, []D=+9.2? Mixisbetween 100% S and 50/50(S/R) optical purity the sample has70%S and30%R It’s not pure; possibly someR present! If some R, what percent? +23.1o > +9.2o < 0o = 40% 40% excess= 40%S + (60%S/Rmixture) 40% excess= 40%S + (30%S + 30%R)
enantiomeric excess (ee): difference between the percent of 2 enantiomers in a mixture Optical Purity:composition of a mixture of enantiomers ee = optical purity
6 - 4 6 + 4 ee = x100% rt []D of (+)-2-butanol = +13.5o; obs sample = ? obs +13.5pure obs pure opt pure = = ee 20% = e.g. 6g of (+)-2-butanol plus 4g of (-)-2-butanol, ee = ? = 20% obs = (.20)(+13.5%) = +2.7o
Example:A commercial synthesis of naproxen (Aleve) gives the S enantiomer in 97% ee. What are the percentages of the R & S in this mixture? Enantiomeric Excess 100% sample = 97%S + (3%S and R) 97%S + (1.5%S+1.5%R) 98.5%S + 1.5%R
One strategy: convert enantiomeric pair into 2 diastereomers Resolution - separation of enantiomers diastereomers - different compounds different physical properties Common - reaction forming salt separate diastereomers remove :B leaves pure enantiomers 4
