Abstract The dispersion of the specific rotation constant of a cholesteric-nematic mixture of 5CB and Ch17 at a low concentration was studied by optical spectroscopy. The dispersion of the anisotropy of the refractive index as a function of the wavelength is studied, and the helical pitch of the cholesteric-nematic mixture is calculated.

Abstract Three new limonoids, designated as rubescins F (1), G (2), and H (3), together with two known compounds of this type, TS1 (4) and trichirubine A (5), were isolated from methylene chloride/methanol extracts of Trichilia rubescens leaves. The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis and complemented by electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry results and by comparison to data of related compounds described in the literature and ab initio calculations. Rubescin F (1) is the first limonoid from Trichilia spp. with an oxetane ring between C-7 and C-14, which seems to be formed by the isomerization of TS1 (4). The γ-hydroxybutenolide rubescin G (2) is a potential precursor of trichirubine A (5), whereas rubescin H (3) is the first example of a triterpenoid with a single bond between C-7/C-14, forming a cyclopropane ring. The absolute configuration of these limonoids was derived from biosynthetic considerations and ab initio calculations of NMR and optical rotation dispersion data.

The optical rotation phenomena exhibited by a citrate-extracted fraction of ichthyocol (from carp swim bladder), as well as by the parent gelatin derived therefrom, have been studied. Dispersion data for all cases follow a single-term Drude equation, but the variations with state are adequately expressed by simple reference to changes in [α]D as follows:— 1. The native collagen fraction, dispersed in 0.15 M citrate buffer at pH 3.7 in the cold (11°C.), yields a high negative specific rotation, [α]D, near –350°. 2. During equilibration at 40°C., which causes conversion to a monodisperse parent gelatin, the rotation drops to about –110°. 3. Gelation at 2°C. results in a partial regain of rotation to around –290°. This mutarotation is reversible, depending on temperature. 4. In the range 0.02 to 0.28 per cent the native ichthyocol and the warm gelatin solutions show little concentration dependence, but with the cold gelatin solutions the specific rotation increases with concentration. Gelatin films formed by cold evaporation yield high specific rotation (ca. –620°), but those formed by hot evaporation retain low optical activity. 5. Since this same collagen-gelatin system has been investigated physicochemically, it is possible to relate molecular changes to the observed variations in optical rotation. Conclusions are similar to those of Robinson (1953), who studied other gelatins: high negative rotation is believed related to a native collagen polypeptide configuration, herein specified as helical (from x-ray diffraction considerations) and destroyed by heating. The possible roles of intermolecular interactions and of prevalent pyrrolidine constituents in influencing the helical configuration and optical activity are discussed.

The optical rotation of a solution of sucrose in water was first measured by Biot (Mém., 1819, ii, 41) in 1819. He introduced the term “optical saccharimetry” for the method of estimation of sugar by measurement of its optical rotation.In 1846, Dubrunfaut (Ann. Chim. Phys., 1846, xviii, 99) observed that the specific rotation of a freshly prepared aqueous solution of glucose decreased from an initial value of about + 110° to a constant value of +52°. The initial value being approximately double the constant value, he called the phenomenon “bi-rotation.” This term proved unsuitable in the case of other substances where a similar change of rotation took place, the initial and final values being rarely in the proportion of 2: 1; hence the expression “multi-rotation” came into use.

The optical rotation of various concentrations of L-valine and L-leucine, dissolved in glacial acetic acid, or 5 or 6 M HCl, was measured with a photoelectric polarimeter at the nominal wavelengths 589, 578, 546, 436, and 365 nm and temperatures of 20, 25, and 30 °C. The specific rotation for any one wavelength, solute, and solvent could be defined by the equation [α]λT = A(1 + D(T − 25)) + BC, where T is temperature in °C, C is concentration in grams of solute per 100 ml of solution, and A, B, and D are constants. The best fit values of the constants were determined by computer calculation and are listed. Constants are also given for calculating a specific rotation based on grams of solute per 100 g of solution.

The refractive index – temperature relation for optically active and racemic diols is linear, with [Formula: see text] from 25° to 40°C.: for the meso-isomer [Formula: see text] from 25° to 50°C. The specific rotation [Formula: see text]. Measurements of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in suitably purified mixtures of stereoisomers allow calculation of the percentage of each isomer present. Tests of the method on known mixtures of all three stereoisomers show an experimental error of ±3%. Analyses of five diol samples from pilot plant fermentations of beet molasses by Aerobacter aerogenes reveal 65–87% meso-, from 2 to 16% dextro-, and from 0 to 33% racemic 2,3-butanediol.
