  2. Diastereomeric recrystallization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diastereomeric_re...

    Diastereomeric recrystallisation is a method of chiral resolution of enantiomers from a racemic mixture. It differs from asymmetric synthesis, which aims to produce a single enantiomer from the beginning, in that diastereomeric recrystallisation separates two enantiomers that have already mixed into a single solution.

  3. Molecular configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_configuration

    Diastereomers are distinct molecular configurations that are a broader category. [3] They usually differ in physical characteristics as well as chemical properties. If two molecules with more than one chiral centre differ in one or more (but not all) centres, they are diastereomers. All stereoisomers that are not enantiomers are diastereomers.

  4. Diastereomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diastereomer

    Enantiomers of a compound with more than one stereocenter are also diastereomers of the other stereoisomers of that compound that are not their mirror image (that is, excluding the opposing enantiomer). Diastereomers have different physical properties (unlike most aspects of enantiomers) and often different chemical reactivity.

  5. Enantiomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantiomer

    A mixture of equal amounts of each enantiomer, a racemic mixture or a racemate, does not rotate light. [7] [8] [9] Stereoisomers include both enantiomers and diastereomers. Diastereomers, like enantiomers, share the same molecular formula and are also nonsuperposable onto each other; however, they are not mirror images of each other. [10]

  7. Stereoselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoselectivity

    An example of modest stereoselectivity is the dehydrohalogenation of 2-iodobutane which yields 60% trans-2-butene and 20% cis-2-butene. [5] Since alkene geometric isomers are also classified as diastereomers, this reaction would also be called diastereoselective.

  8. Enantioselective synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantioselective_synthesis

    Enantioselective synthesis, also called asymmetric synthesis, [1] is a form of chemical synthesis.It is defined by IUPAC as "a chemical reaction (or reaction sequence) in which one or more new elements of chirality are formed in a substrate molecule and which produces the stereoisomeric (enantiomeric or diastereomeric) products in unequal amounts."

  9. Chiral derivatizing agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiral_derivatizing_agent

    (R)-α-methoxy-α-(trifluoromethyl)- phenylacetic acid (Mosher's acid). In analytical chemistry, a chiral derivatizing agent (CDA), also known as a chiral resolving reagent, is a derivatization reagent that is a chiral auxiliary used to convert a mixture of enantiomers into diastereomers in order to analyze the quantities of each enantiomer present and determine the optical purity of a sample.
