D-Tartaric acid is available commercially and has a specific rotation of-12.0°. Give a likely reason that the value is not -12.7
Homework Answers
Answer #1
D- Tartaric
acid makesw racemic acid. This is also called levo tartaric
acid.
It rotates counter clock wise.
We can synthesize the spectroscoipic methods along with scaterring experiments.
There we can observe specific optical rotation at nearly 0.32mM.
The less natural form of tartaric acid (D-tartaric) has a specific optical rotation of -12o
The mesomeric form is synthesized not occured naturally.
It occurs from fermentation of Glucose.
It occurs naturally. It is used as anti oxidants in foods.
It is treated with lime to form calcium tartate.
For the purification of tartaric acid the specific rotation decreases.
It is used mostly in beverages.

The
synthetic form of tartaric acid is optically inactive (its specific
rotation is 0). However, its melting point is significantly
different from that of meso-tartaric acid, which is also optically
inactive. Based on this observations deduce the structure(s) of
component(s) of the synthetic form of tartaric acid.

The specific rotation for optically pure (S)-(+)- phenylsuccinic
acid is reported to be [ α]D =+171 degrees (4.0, acetone). Under
the same conditions, the specific rotation for a lab sample of
