Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The cyanohydrins transformation should draw and identified expected to be formed when HCN is added to compounds (a) and (b) in problem 15.4.
Concept Introduction:
Nucleophiles: A nucleophile is a more reactant species that affords a pair of electrons to the electrophile or electrophilic center and forms a new covalent bond. The carbon or other hetero atom in a molecule which is bearing negative charge or lone pair of electron is called as nucleophiles.
Nucleophilic reaction: electron rich nucleophiles attack the positive or partially positive charge of an atom and replace a leaving group is called Nucleophilic Substitution reaction.

- Vitamin D3, the most abundant of the D vitamins, is synthesized from 7- dehydrocholesterol, a compound found in milk and fatty fish such as salmon and mackerel. When the skin is exposed to sunlight, a photochemical electrocyclic ring opening forms provitamin D3, which is then converted to vitamin D3 by a sigmatropic rearrangement. Draw the structure of provitamin D3.arrow_forwardWhat peptides are expected to be produced when α-melanotropin is cleaved by (a) trypsin, (b) cyanogen bromide, or (c) thermolysin?
