Interpretation:
Amine and alcohol present in scopolamine has to be classified as primary, secondary or tertiary.
Concept Introduction:
Alcohols are compounds that contain hydroxyl group attached to the carbon atom. Primary alcohol is the one that has hydroxyl group bonded to the carbon atom that contains two hydrogen atoms. Secondary alcohol is the one that has hydroxyl group bonded to carbon atom that contains only one hydrogen atom. Tertiary alcohol is the one that has hydroxyl group bonded to carbon atom that does not have any hydrogen atom.

- Rank the labeled nitrogen atoms in each compound in order of increasing basicity. Histamine causes the runny nose and watery eyes associated with allergies, and trazodone is a drug used as a sedative and antidepressant.arrow_forwardGive an acceptable name for each amide.arrow_forwardStanozolol is an anabolic steroid that promotes muscle growth. Althoughstanozolol has been used by athletes and body builders, many physicaland psychological problems result from prolonged use and it is bannedin competitive sports. Explain why the pKa of the N—H bond in the pyrazole ring iscomparable to the pKa of the O—H bond, making it considerably moreacidic than amines such as CH3NH2 (pKa = 40).arrow_forward
