Structure of optically active materials wine acid, glycerol adelaide, valine, tyrosine, arabinose, glucose in higher-dimensional space
摘要
This work is aimed at explaining the phenomenon of a single cause of the optical activity of many organic substances, first discovered by Louis Pasteur (1848) for tartaric acid. Louis Pasteur, however, gave an incorrect explanation for this phenomenon. As has recently been shown as reported by Zhizhin, the cause of the optical activity of tartaric acid is the peculiarity of the arrangement of tartaric acid atoms in the space of higher dimension of the molecule, and not the difference in three-dimensional shapes of crystals of enantiomorphic forms of tartaric acid. In this paper, it is shown that this cause of optical activity underlies all organic substances that have optical activity. Moreover, the more complex the structure of an organic substance, the higher the dimension of the space in which this property is manifested. The research method in this work is to construct the structure of substances in a space of higher dimension determined by the chemical bond of the atoms that make up the substance. The presence of a chain of carbon atoms with ions with opposite signs attached to it is fundamental for the existence of optical activity in the substances under study. The exchange of the arrangement of oppositely charged ions results in rotation of the plane of polarized light in the opposite direction.
