The compound MON-0585 is a non-toxic, biodegradable larvicide that is highly selective against mosquito larvae. Synthesize MON-0585 using either benzene or phenol as a source of the aromatic rings.
The shrub ma huang (Section 5.4A) contains two biologically activestereoisomers—ephedrine and pseudoephedrine—with two stereogeniccenters as shown in the given structure. Ephedrine is one component ofa once-popular combination drug used by body builders to increaseenergy and alertness, whereas pseudoephedrine is a nasaldecongestant.a.) Draw the structure of naturally occurring (−)-ephedrine, which has the1R,2S configuration.b.) Draw the structure of naturally occurring (+)-pseudoephedrine, whichhas the 1S,2S configuration.c.) How are ephedrine and pseudoephedrine related?d.) Draw all other stereoisomers of (−)-ephedrine and (+) pseudoephedrine, and give the R,S designation for all stereogeniccenters.e.) How is each compound drawn in part (d) related to (−)-ephedrine?
