Encyclopedia: Racemic Mixture
A racemic mixture or racemate in chemistry is one that has equal amounts of left- and right-handed enantiomers of a chiral molecule. The first known racemic mixture, or racemate, was 'racemic acid', which Pasteur found to be a mixture of the two enantiomeric isomers of tartaric acid. A racemate is optically inactive: because the two isomers rotate plane-polarized light in opposite directions they cancel out, therefore a racemic mixture does...

As I have already stated in another question of yours (TLC question)... There are some chromatorgraphic techniques that can be used to monitor and characterize enantiomeric excess (EE's). High Pressure Liquid...

CHEMISTRY HELP! Why can't we use TLC to characterize the formation of a racemic product?...
I think it's supposed to be a very practical reason.

Well, actually, you can use TLC to monitor the formation of a racemic product. You just cannot use TLC to monitor how much of each enantiomer has formed because both...

racemic self-aggregation?
I have found one example in the literature where the authors claim that a non-racemic mixture of R in part. The R and S isomers form 1 1 aggregates (racemic), increasing the ee of the major isomer

Racemic Mixtures and A Finkelstein Reaction
below, can be used to separate a racemic mixture of the amino acid, phenylalanine, also shown below be used to separate a racemic mixture of 2-chlorobutane? Why or why not? Iodoalkanes are readily prepared
