Tartaric acid crystals drawn as if seen through an optical microscope. Naturally occurring form of the acid is dextro tartaric acid or L-(+)-tartaric acid (obsolete name d-tartaric acid). Because it is available naturally, it is cheaper than its enantiomer and the meso isomer. The dextro and levo prefixes are archaic terms. [15]

This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
The racemic trans isomer (1:1 mixture of (1R,2R)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane and (1S,2S)-1,2-diaminocyclohexane) can be separated into the two enantiomers using enantiomerically pure tartaric acid as the resolving agent. [2] Oxaliplatin, a complex of R,R-diaminocyclohexane, is an important anticancer drug.
One of the first such racemates studied, by Pasteur in 1853, forms from a 1:2 mixture of the bis ammonium salt of (+)-tartaric acid and the bis ammonium salt of (−)-malic acid in water. Re-investigated in 2008, [ 9 ] the crystals formed are dumbbell -shape with the central part consisting of ammonium (+)-bitartrate, whereas the outer parts ...
Potassium sodium tartrate tetrahydrate, also known as Rochelle salt, is a double salt of tartaric acid first prepared (in about 1675) by an apothecary, Pierre Seignette, of La Rochelle, France. Potassium sodium tartrate and monopotassium phosphate were the first materials discovered to exhibit piezoelectricity. [3]
Boiling point: 280 °C (536 °F; 553 K) Solubility in water. ... S,S-, and R,S-tartaric acids. The R,R- and S,S- isomers are enantiomeric, being mirror images.
It is a white crystalline powder with an acid taste. [1] It is hygroscopic when exposed to air. [ 1 ] Modern texts refer to the choline salt of the natural form of tartaric acid , that is, the salt called choline dextrobitartrate, choline (2 R ,3 R )-bitartrate or choline L-(+)-bitartrate.
