They could be separated by crystallization, distillation, or chromatography. (c) Both products are optically active. Each has two chiral centers and no plane of symmetry. + (a) 56 Ba(OH)2 Ba(OH)2 HNO3 HNO3 OH COOH H HO H COOH OH CH2OH H HO H CN COOH HHO H CH2OH OHH2O A CHCN CHO H CH2OH OH COOH OHH H COOH OH CN OHH H CH2OH OH OH CH2OH H H OH COOH H2O B D COOH HHO H COOH OH COOH OHH HO COOH H OH COOH H H OH COOH 57 + (−)-tartaric acid meso-tartaric acid (a) (b) (S,S)-(−)-tartaric acid (R,R)-(+)-tartaric acid (R,S)-meso-tartaric acid 618
