The angle of optical rotation and the specific optical rotation of polymer solutions in chloroform were determined on an ATAGO AP-300 (Atago, Tokyo, Japan) automatic polarimeter at a wavelength of the D line of the sodium spectrum (λ = 589.3 nm) at a temperature of 20–25 °C, and a tube length of L = 99.96 mm. The number of D-units (D%) in polylactide was calculated by the formula: D%=([α]D25(PLLA)[α]D25(PLA))2[α]D25PLLA×100%,
where [α]D25PLA and [α]D25PLLA are the specific optical rotation of polylactide and poly-l-lactide in the sample, respectively.
The measurements for the samples of each of the syntheses were repeated three times, and then the arithmetical mean value of α were determined.
The average value of α was used to determine the specific rotation of the obtained polymers. All measurements were carried out in chloroform solution for comparability of experimental data.

The reaction mixture (40 mL) consisted of 100 mM glycine‐NaOH buffer (pH 9.0), (RS)‐2 c (50.0 mg, 0.197 mmol), 100 mM NaBH4, and 4 U purified enzyme was stirred at 1.3×103 rpm at 30 °C for 1 hr in a 1 L eggplant flask. The progress of the reaction was monitored by HPLC with an OD‐H column (φ 0.46 cm ×25 cm, Daicel Chiral Technologies Co. Ltd, Tokyo, JAPAN) using a solvent system of hexane: 2‐propanol=9 : 1 (Absorbance: 220 nm, Flow rate: 1 mL/min, column temperature: 30 °C). The reaction was quenched by addition of 1 M NaOH. The aqueous phase was extracted by hexane (40 mL×3), and then, the hexane layer was dried in vacuo. The remaining product was analyzed by 1H‐NMR and by optical rotation measurement. The 1H NMR spectra were recorded on the Bruker Biospin AVANCE II 400 (Bruker Biospin, Rheinstetten, Germany) system. Optical rotation was determined by ATAGO AP‐300 (Atago Co., Tokyo, Japan) by using a 10.1‐mm cell. The optical purity of the isolated (R)‐2 c was 95.7 % e.e. with an isolation yield of 46.2 % (19.8 mg, 0.091 mmol). The 1H‐NMR spectra were shown as follows: 2 c (400 MHz; DMSO‐d6) δH (ppm) 7.18‐7.43 (m, 9H), 5.09 (s, 1H), 2.33 (s, 2H). [ɑ]D27−9.99° (c 1.0, EtOH) (lit. [ɑ]D20−10.6 (c 1.1, EtOH) for the (R)‐enantiomer, [ɑ]D20+10.8 (c 2.18, EtOH) for the (S)‐enantiomer.).14

The moisture, ash, fat, and crude protein were determined by standard procedures (AOAC, 1995). Purity of isolated starch was determined polarimetrically using an Automatic polarimeter (Atago, AP—300). Amylose content was determined according to Williams et al.'s Williams, Kuzina, and Hlynka (1970) method. Ten mL of 0.5 N KOH were added to 20 mg of starch samples, mixed thoroughly and topped up in 100 ml volumetric flask with distilled water. Ten ml aliquots were pipetted in 50 ml volumetric flasks to which 5 ml of 0.1 N HCl and 0.5 ml of iodine reagent were added sequentially. The flasks were diluted to the mark and absorbance was measured at 625 nm. An amylose and amylopectin blend standard curve was used to measure the amylose content.

Determining Optical Rotation of Essential Oils

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Certain chemical compounds exhibit specific rotation [α]Dt , which results in a deviation of the polarization plane of polarized light. This deviation suggests the presence of an asymmetric carbon. The Rotatory power [α]Dt measured at a temperature t, using the d-line of Sodium (Na) λ = 589 nm as a light source is expressed by Biot's law(2): [α]Dt=αL.C With:
α: Value of the deflection angle of the polarized light read on the polarimeter expressed in degrees.
L: Length of the cell expressed in dm.
C: Concentration of the test solution in g/100 mL.
In order to evaluate the rotation angles a branded polarimeter was used: ATAGO AP-300, equipped with a cell filled with an ethanolic solution of essential oil at a rate of 0.20 g for the sample in 100 mL of solvent.
The instrument measures the observed degree of rotation directly, allowing us to calculate the rotatory power of our essence [18 ].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
