Two diastereomeric sets of enantiomers, A/B and C/D, exist for 3-bromo-2-butanol. When enantiomer A or B is treated with HBr, only racemic 2,3-dibromobutane is formed; no meso isomer is formed. When enantiomer C or D is treated with HBr, only meso 2,3-dibromobutane is formed; no racemic 2,3-dibromobutane is formed. Account for these observations.
Digitalis is a preparation made from the dried seeds and leaves of the purple foxglove, Digitalis purpurea, a plant native to southern and central Europe and cultivated in the United States. The preparation is a mixture of several active components, including digitalin. Digitalis is used in medicine to increase the force of myocardial contraction and as a conduction depressant to decrease heart rate (the heart pumps more forcefully but less often).
Aspirin is an anti-inflammatory agent because it inhibits the conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandins by the transfer of its acetyl group (CH3CO−) to an OH group at the active site of an enzyme. This reaction, called transesterification, results in the conversion of one ester to another by a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the given transesterification.
What is the major enolate (or carbanion) formed when each compound is treated with LDA?
Draw the structure of each molecule. (a) (E)-4-carbamoylbut-3-enoic acid; (b) 3-carbamoylpentanediamide; (c) 4,6-dioxohexanenitrile; (d) (1S,2S)-2-methoxycyclopent-3-ene-1-carbonitrile; (e) cyclohexa-3,6-diene-1,3-dicarboxylic acid
The reaction of 4-methylcyclohexanone with CH3MgBr followed by neutralization gives two alcohols. These two alcohols are A. enantiomers formed in equal amounts. B. diastereomers. C. constitutional isomers. D. enantiomers formed in unequal amounts.
Draw the structure of each molecule. (a) 2,2-dimethylpropyl hex-3-ynoate; (b) cyanoethanoic anhydride; (c) cyanomethyl 5,5-dibromopentanoate; (d) hex-3-ynoic anhydride; (e) butyl (R)-4-carbamoylhexanoate
Which of the following compounds would give a positive Tollens test? (Remember that the Tollens test involves mildbasic aqueous conditions.)(a) CH3CH2CH2COCH3 (b) CH3CH2CH2CH2CHO (c) CH3CH“CHCH“CHOH(d) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH(OH)OCH3 (e) CH3CH2CH2CH2CH(OCH3)2
Synthesising menthone is an exothermic process that includes a reflux procedure. Mark the correct statements. * A- The reflux process enables us to transfers energy to the reaction mixture for an extended period of time without loss of solvent or reagents. B- The reflux process increases the rate of the oxidation of menthol. C- The reflux process increases the yield of the oxidation of menthol. D- A water bath can be used in the preparation of menthone because the boiling point of the reaction mixture is below 100°C due to the inclusion of acetone in this mixture.
Acetal product formation is difficult, since hemiacetals are stable while acetals are not stable. True False
A diuretic is a compound that causes increased urination and thereby reduces fluid volume in the body. An important use of diuretics in clinical medicine is in the reduction of the fluid buildup, particularly in the lungs, that is associated with congestive heart failure. It is also used as an antihypertensive (i.e., to reduce blood pressure). Furosemide, an exceptionally potent diuretic, is prescribed under 30 or more trade names, the best known of which is Lasix. The synthesis of furosemide begins with treatment of 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid with chlorosulfonic acid in a reaction called chlorosulfonation. The product of this reaction is then treated with ammonia followed by heating with furfurylamine. Q. Propose a mechanism for the chlorosulfonation reaction in Step (1).
