Among the many examples of SN1 reactions that occur with incomplete racemization, the optically pure tosylate of 2,2-dimethyl-1-phenyl-1-propanol ([a]D 5 230.3) gives the corresponding acetate ([a]D 5 15.3) when heated in acetic acid. If complete inversion hadoccurred, the optically pure acetate would have had [a]D 5 153.6. What percentage racemizationand what percentage inversion occurred in this reaction?
Management of Innovation – Week 1 We watched the video on Ted Talk called “Do Schools Kill Creativity” o If you are not prepared to be wrong, you cannot become original. o You grow out of creativity and into education. o Educational intelligence is diverse and interactive. Management is a balance between managing and controlling.
