Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Optical Rotating Power of Organic Substances and Its Practical Applications

The optical introduction, which possibly may be of interest to many chemists, has been kept as concise and elementary as possible. I have also touched but briefly on the relations be tween crystalline form and rotating power, as this topic ap pears to belong in the field of physical crystallography.

Excerpt from The Optical Rotating Power of Organic Substances and Its Practical Applications

Although the subject of the optical rotating power of organic substances, in theoretical as well as in practical relations, has been growing in importance for a long time, chemical literature possesses thus far no work which presents a complete discussion of the whole field, and studies in this line may be carried out only by the aid of articles scattered through the journals. I have attempted in the present book to supply the want in this direction, and the incentive to the work was furnished by an article which I published some time since in Liebig sAnnalen der Chemie, Vol. 189.This article dealt with the determination of the specific rotation of solid substances, and was introduced by a short general discussion of optical activity. From several quarters I was urged to enlarge the article and, especially by the addition of a description of all the new polarization instruments and the practical uses which may be made of them, to work up a monograph as complete as possible of the subject of optical rotation. Such an undertaking appears all the more inviting since in the last few years. different observers have carried out investigations in this field which have increased our knowledge considerably, and which make it possible to give a certain degree of completeness to the treatment of the subject.

From a theoretical standpoint the optical activity of organic substances possesses this great interest, that it is a consequence of a peculiar arrangement of the atoms within the chemical molecule, and therefore stands in close relation to the question of constitution. However, we are just at the beginning of investigations of the relations between rotating power and chemical structure, and for future study there is material at hand abundant and full of promise.
