Polarimeter

概要

Source: Vy M. Dong and Diane Le, Department of Chemistry, University of California, Irvine, CA

This experiment will demonstrate the use of a polarimeter, which is an instrument used to determine the optical rotation of a sample. Optical rotation is the degree to which a sample will rotate polarized light. Optically active samples will rotate the plane of light clockwise (dextrorotatory), designated as d or (+), or counterclockwise (levorotatory), designated as l or (−).

手順

1. Preparing the Polarimeter

  1. Turn on instrument and let it warm up for 10 min.
  2. Make sure instrument is set to "optical rotation" mode.
  3. Prepare a blank sample in the polarimeter cell (1.5 mL total sample volume, 1 dm in length) containing only CHCl3. Make sure there are no air bubbles present.
  4. Place the blank cell in the holder and press "zero."

2. Preparation of Analyte Sample

  1. Prepare a stock solution of 10

申請書と概要

In this experiment, we have demonstrated the principles behind the polarimeter and how to measure and calculate the specific rotation of an optically active compound.

The polarimeter is an important instrument in the fine-chemical and pharmaceutical industries to assess the identity, purity, and quality of a compound. It is specifically used for the measurement of optical rotation of chiral compounds, which can be used to distinguish the identity of two enantiomers by confirming whether it is
