The molecular structure of the meso isomer of 3,4-dimethylhexane is a six-carbon chain with two methyl groups attached to the third and fourth carbon atoms. The meso isomer has a symmetric arrangement of substituents, resulting in an internal plane of symmetry.

What are isomers of hydrobenzoin?

The isomers of hydrobenzoin are meso-hydrobenzoin and racemic hydrobenzoin. Meso-hydrobenzoin is a molecule with an internal plane of symmetry, while racemic hydrobenzoin is a mixture of two enantiomers with no plane of symmetry.

What do you get when you react Propanal and hydrogen cyanide. Also why is it optically inactive and what name is given to such an inactive product?

I can't remember what you get but it's optically inactive because it's a racemic mixture. Which means that there is a 50:50 ratio of the (+) optical isomer and the (-) optical isomer. It's inactive because the (+) rotates plain polarised light clockwise and the (-) isomer rotates plain polarised light anticlockwise. So they cancel each other out because it's a racemic mix and therefore shows no optical activity.

What is meso-stilbene dibromide?

Meso-stilbene dibromide is an organic molecule. Its structure is a benzene ring bonded to a carbon with a hydrogen and a bromine. That carbon is bonded to another carbon with a bromine that is ANTI to the first bromine. This carbon is then also bonded to a benzene ring.


What is the difference between optical isomer and optically active isomer?

Optical isomers are those which have one or more asymmetric carbon atoms their optical activity means a tendency to rotate the plane of plane polarized light but some of such molecules have an internal symmetry as meso form of Tartaric acid , this is the optical isomer of Tartaric acid but is optically inactive.

How can one identify meso compounds in organic chemistry?

Meso compounds in organic chemistry can be identified by their symmetry. A meso compound will have a plane of symmetry that divides the molecule into two identical halves. This symmetry distinguishes meso compounds from other stereoisomers.
