With few exceptions, enantiomers cannot be separated through physical means. When in racemic
mixtures, they have the same physical properties. Enantiomers have similar chemical properties as
well. The only chemical difference between a pair of enantiomers occurs in reactions with other chi-
ral compounds. Thus resolution of a racemic mixture typically takes place through a reaction with
another optically active reagent. Since living organisms usually produce only one of two possible
enantiomers, many optically active reagents can be obtained from natural sources. For instance,
(S)-(+)-lactic acid can be obtained from animal muscle tissue and (S)-(–)-2-methyl-1-butanol from
yeast fermentation.

Racemic mixture of (R)-phenylethylamine salt salt

CO2H CO2H
H Cl Cl H

Separation of enantiomers

In the resolution of a racemic acid, a solution of (R)-phenylethylamine is reacted with a racemic

mixture of phenylchloroacetic acid to form the corresponding salts. The salts are then separated
by careful fractional crystallisation. Hydrochloric acid is added to the separated salts, and the
respective acids are precipitated from their solutions.
Resolution of a racemic base can be accomplished in the same manner with tartaric acid.

92. Quinine, a natural antimalarial, is commonly used as an optically active reagent to resolve
acidic enantiomers. How many chiral carbons exist in the quinine molecule drawn below?

Passage 3
Stereoisomers are compounds that have same sequence of covalent bonds but differ in the rela-
tive dispositions of their atoms in space. Geometrical and optical isomers are the two important
types of configurational isomers.
The compound with double bonds or ring structure has restricted rotation, so exists in two
geometrical forms. The double bonds in larger rings can also cause geometrical isomerism. The
optical isomers rotate the plane of plane-polarised light. A sp3-hybridised carbon atom bearing
four different types of substituents is called an asymmetric centre of 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 stereoisomers that are not mirror images of each other
are called diastereomers. Diastereomers 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 inter-
nal plane of symmetry of centre of symmetry within the molecule.

Passage 4
Isomers that have the same skeletons (that is, with component atoms attached in the same
sequence) but differ from each other with relative positions of some atoms in three-dimensional
space by virtue of rotation about σ bonds are called conformational isomers or conformers.
A quantitative description that relates relative atomic positions to the changes in potential energy
during rotation about a σ bond describes the energetics of conformational interconversion, a
­process known as conformational analysis.
Rotation about (C −σ C) bond in ethane can give various conformers:
In structure A1 or B1, C–H flagpoles at C-1 completely overlap each other at C-2. This form is
called eclipsed conformation.

In structure A2 or B2, C—H flagpoles at C-1 is fixed at 60° dihedral angle so that it is exactly
between two C–H flagpoles at C–2. This is called staggered conformation.
• Various other structures in between eclipsed and staggered conformations are called
skew conformation.
• Structures B1 and B2 show the orientations of the hydrogens on the front carbon relative
to those on the back carbon, these are called Newman projections.
• Structures A1 and A2 are called Sawhorse projections.
