Concept explainers
The problem below is directed toward devising a hypothetical pathway for the synthesis of the acyclic central portion of Crixivan (Merck and Company’s HIV protease inhibitor). Note that your synthesis might not adequately control the stereochemistry during each step, but for this particular exercise chat is not expected.
Fill in missing compounds and reagents in the following outline of a hypothetical synthesis of the acyclic central portion of Crixivan. Note that more than one intermediate compound may be involved between some of the structures shown below.

- Below is a schematic representation of possible reactions that Compound X can undergo. Use the scheme to answer the following question. Illustrating with reaction mechanisms, show how compounds [1], [2], [3] and [4] are formed. The attached image contains the schemearrow_forwardGive the structure of compounds A to F in the following series of reactionsarrow_forwardThe Arndt-Eistert synthesis involves a rearrangement (known as a Wolff Rearrangement) with concomitant evolution of nitrogen gas. This reaction has been modified by Georg (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2010, 132, 15512) to result in a "vinylogous" Wolff Rearrangement (not covered in class). Propose a mechanism for Georg's variation shown below (hint: there's a ketene intermediate). Bn. N O OEt №₂ Bn CO₂Etarrow_forward
- A ketone undergoes acid-catalyzed bromination, acid-catalyzed chlorination, racemization, and acid-catalyzed deuterium exchange at the alpha-carbon. All of these reactions have similar rate constants. What does this tell you about the mechanisms of these reactions?arrow_forwardPropose a reasonable mechanism for the following reaction.arrow_forwardprovide a possible synthesis for the following reactionarrow_forward
