From the following statements, which is CORRECT?
A. Optically inactive reactants yields optically active products.
B. Optically inactive reactants yield optically inactive products.
C. Optically active products are the result of optically inactive reactants.
D. The preparation of dissymmetric compounds from symmetric reactants yields no racemic modification.
Organic molecules are such that reactants must be optically active in order for the products to be optically active. The converse, that is, the relation between inactive reactants and inactive products, is also correct. However, the products of optically active reactants may not show such activity, and this is due to racemic modification of the isomers.
