Optical isomers...
Optical isomers are so called because they apparently "have differing effects on polarised light" - what exactly happens and why?
Thanks in advance. :smile:
The book says 4, but isn't there 5?
1) CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-BR
2) CH3-CH2-CH-CH3
BR
3) CH3-CH-CH2-BR
CH3
4) CH3-CH2-CH-BR
CH3
CH3
5) CH3-C-CH3
BR
ugh..sorry i can't get the computer...
When (R)-2-chlorobutane is chlorinated, we obtain some 2,3-dichlorobutane. It consists of 71% meso isomer and 29% racemic isomers. Explain why the mixture need not be 50:50 meso and (2R,3R)-2,3-dichlorobutane
I am doing my Organic Chem homework and need help. It asks: Draw and name all constitutional isomers with formula C9H20 which have one quaternary carbon and one or more ethyl groups (there are three). What are they and how do I find them?
-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c nonane

-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c- 2-methyloctane

-c-c-c-c-c-c-c-c- 3-methyloctane

does anyone...
hey I am trying to figure out all the isomers for C9H20...im getting kind of frusterated so if anyone can help me find them or just tell me how thatd be awesome! thanx! :smile:
I was given a molecular formula C7H16 and asked to find all possible isomers. I know there are nine because the question said it. But I am just wondering how to find all isomers correctly without repeating myself. Is there a way to do this mathematically or a general rule that makes it easier?
Today in my chemistry glass, my teacher was talking about isomers in organic chemistry.
I was wondering if there is a formula or a way to predict the number of isomers each alkanes compound has.
