Re: Molecule of the Week - 2-sec-Butyl-4,5dihydrothiazol

Is this molecule in its active form racemic?

It's not a chiral molecule, so there are no optical isomers, correct?

of Course the molecule has chiral carbon. the carbon at position 2 has four different group attached ; the Et and Met group, and Hydrogen and Thiazole or ring group

Re: Molecule of the Week - 2-sec-Butyl-4,5dihydrothiazol

the molecule can form a racemic mixture. it has an asymmetric carbon at position 2. However, i do not know which form is the active one. or maybe, both form are active.
