Give an example of a drug that is marketed as a racemic mixture giving the therapeutic benefit of this. [4 marks) Dr.us 10.) Many substances ihat occur in plants and animals are found naturally as pure enantiomers and any total synthesis of such compounds must, therefore involve a method of resolving the synthetic racemic mixture into their optically active. Name four (4) methods that may be emploved in achieving this.. [4 marks) (d) A sample of 2-hromobutan has !!!". The spuitte rotaika vi i+)-2. bromebulanc at 21°C is +23.10. What is the enantiomeric excess of (+)-2-bromobutane in this sample?
