The optical rotation of the alpha form o...

The optical rotation of the `alpha` form of a pyranose is + 150.70, that of the `beta` form is +52.80. In solution an equlibrium mixture of the anomers has an optical rotation of +80.20. The percentage of the `alpha` form at equilibrium is

A

0.28

B

0.32

C

0.68

D

0.72

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Let the percentage of `alpha`- form =x (say) , Then the percentage of `beta`- form = (100-x)
`:. ({x xx 150.7} xx {(100-x)52.8})/(100) = 80.20, x = 28` percentage of `alpha`- from = 28%

Structural isomers have different covalent linkage of atoms. Stereoisomers are compounds that have same sequence of covalent bonds but differ in the relative dispositions of their atoms in space. Geometri cal and optical isomers are the two important types of configurational isomers. The compound with double bonds or ring structure have restricted rotation, so exist in two geometrical forms. The double bonds in larger rings (ring size 10 carbon large) can also cause geometrical isomerism. The optical isomers rotate the plane of plane-polarised light. A sp^(3) -hybridised carbon atom bearing four different types of substituents is called an asymmetric centre or chiral centre. A chiral object or molecule cannot be superimposed on its mirror image. Stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other are called enantiomers. The stereosomers that the pot mirror images of each other are called diastereomers. Diasteremers have different physical properties. A racemic mixture is optically inactive and contains equal amounts of both the enantiomers. Resolution refers to method of separating a racemic mixture. Into two pure enantiomers. A meso compound is an optically inactive stereoisomer, which is achiral due to the presence of an internal plane of symmetry or centre of symmetry within the molecule. The number of chiral centres present in the following compounds is
