-
compound or meso
isomer is an
optically inactive isomer in a set of stereoisomers, at
least two of
which are
optically active. This
means that despite...
- conversion, by heat or by
chemical reaction, of an
optically active compound into a
racemic (
optically inactive) form. This
creates a 1:1
molar ratio of enantiomers...

While carbons 1 and 5 are
asymmetric carbons,
tropane itself is
optically inactive due to
mirror symmetry. 8-Azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane (tropane without...

fading upon
prolonged exposure to UV, due to the
formation of
optically inactive cis-stilbenes. They are also

oxygen in air, like most...
- name for an
optically inactive or
racemic form of
tartaric acid. It is an
equal mixture of two mirror-image
isomers (enantiomers),
optically active in opposing...

insoluble in cold water. Due to the
symmetry in the molecule, it is
optically inactive even
though it has
