The LD50 (“Lethal Dose, 50 %”) is a value used in toxicology which gives the amount of a substance required to kill 50 % of a test population. It is usually reported based on body weight. For racemic carvone LD50 is reported as 1640 mg/kg. 1. Would it consider carvone to be toxic to an average person? Explain. 2. Would it be expected this the LD50 value to be the same for each enantiomer? Explain at the molecular level in stereochemical terms.
Convert the following Fischer projections into tetrahedral representations, and assign R or S stereochemistry to the molecules on part a and b in the picture
A chiral alkyne A with molecular formula C6H10 is reduced with H2 and Lindlar catalyst to B having the R conguration at its stereogenic center. What are the structures of A and B?
Organic Chemistry 1 Here is the professor's solution to the problem. However, I do NOT understand the solution. Please explain the answer in a clear step-by-step fashion to me. Explain the answer provided in the image in a clear fashion and as if I did not know much about organic chemistry. It seems to me like the professor is making the problem more complicated than it has to be. Can you demystify or simplify this problem about D glucose? How can you assign priorities on a Fischer projection? I don't get it.
