The enantiomers of bromofluoroiodomethane (CHBrFI) were separated on a preparative scale using gas chromatography (GC). The collected single enantiomers were analysed by vibrational circular dichroism spectroscopy and polarimetry in combination with ab initio calculations to determine the respective absolute configuration.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
