Explain optical activity of 2-chlorobutane

टिप्पणी लिखिए

उत्तर

  1. The property of a substance by which it rotates the plane of polarization of incident plane-polarized light is known as optical activity.
  2. 2-Chlorobutane has one chiral carbon atom and thus, exists as a pair of enantiomers which are non-superimposable mirror images of each other.
  3. These mirror images are referred to as optical isomers; which differ from each other in terms of a measurable property called optical activity. The structure of 2-chlorobutane and its mirror image can be represented as,
  4. Thus, 2-chlorobutane will show optical activity and in accordance with the direction of optical rotation, one isomer will be dextrorotatory, and the other will be laevorotatory.
