A d,l mixture(R-R and S-S)can be resolved into the d and the I enantiomers.while the meso isomer(R-S,identical with S-R)cannot be physically separated.This fact has occasionally been "extrapolated" to differentiate d,I and meso isomers with a chiral shift reagent,where the meso isomer is presumed not to show any signal "doubling" during the(usually)downfield shift.This assumption has been shown to be incorrect by the behavior of a meso molecule which does give signal "doubling".
