Polarimetric Analytical Method: The Importance in the Determination of Pharmaceutical Active and Inactive Ingredients

Journal Title: Medicinal & Analytical Chemistry International Journal - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 1

Abstract

Molecules that make up living things or metabolized by living things tend to be chiral. Chiral compounds (optical isomers), are a specific case of stereoisomers and are distinguished by having enantiomeric counterparts with identical chemical properties in nonchiral environments however, differing in the way they rotate a plane of polarized light. As chirality becomes more appreciated amongst research scientists, tools to measure it increase in importance in analytical laboratories.
