Clopidogrel rotating molecular 3d structure ball-and-stick model, looped video plavix

SOLVED: 10. (6 points) Drawn below is the structure of Plavix® (clopidogrel), a medication used to manage blood clots. Assign the configuration of the chiral center in Plavix® as R or S. Show your work assigning priorities and direction of rotation. The pure enantiomer used in Plavix® has a specific rotation of 56.19. In a laboratory mixture of clopidogrel, the specific rotation is measured to be 40.89. Calculate the optical purity (%) of this laboratory sample. Then, calculate the perce
