(a)
Interpretation:
The synthesis of atenolol has to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Esterification: Esterification reaction is the reaction of acid react with excess of alcohol in the presence of either acid or base catalyst to forms an ester.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason is to be explained for the amination of ester rather than acid chloride to ester.
(c)
Interpretation:
The possible stereoisomer’s has to be shown if the product is chiral.
Concept introduction:
Chiral:
A molecule is non superimposable on its mirror image is called chiral molecule. Four different atoms attached to a carbon atom is called chiral molecule.
Isomer: A molecule having the same molecular formula but with different chemical structure is called isomer.
Stereoisomers: Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula and they differ only in arrangement of atom in three-dimensional space.
Enantiomers: A compound which is non-superimposable mirror image is called enantiomers.
Diastereomers: A compound which is non-superimposable and non-mirror image is called diastereomers.
Racemic mixture: A racemic mixture is simply a mixture containing an equal amount of each enantiomer.

- classify the molecules of interest (i.e. para-aminophenol, acetaminophen, phenacetin) in increasing order of polarity? Rationalize these observations based on molecular interactions.arrow_forwardTreatment of pentanedioic (glutaric) anhydride with ammonia at elevated temperature leads to a compound of molecular formula C5H7NO2. What is the structure of this product? [Hint: You need to think about the reactivity not only of acid anhydrides but also of amides and carboxylic acids]arrow_forward4 (Chemical Connections 19F) Why do Lactomer stitches dissolve within 2 to 3 weeks following surgery?arrow_forward
- Benzylpenicillin shown in Figure 34 was the first antibiotic to be manufactured on large scale. How many ester groups can be formed when this compound reacts with methanol in the presence of strong acid?arrow_forwardN-Methylpyrrolidine has a boiling point of 81 °C, and piperidine has a boiling point of 106 °C. Tetrahydropyran has a boiling point of 88 °C, and cyclopentanone has a boiling point of 141 °C. These two isomershave a boiling point difference of 53 °C. Explain why the two oxygen-containing isomers have a much larger boilingpoint difference than the two amine isomersarrow_forwardExplain why benzocaine precipitates during the neutralization.arrow_forward
- noradrenaline and serotonin in the spinal cord. Deduce the structure of this new compound, given its molecular neuron to another. Noradrenaline (also called norepinephrine) and serotonin are neurotransmitters that act in its) Neurotransmitters are small molecules that are produced by the body to send messages from one the central nervous system. A recently report synthetic compound has effects that are similar to baul formula (CəH13NO) and the following 'H NMR spectral data. Show your work by labeling your proposed structure with the corresponding letters for the signals listed below. a) 1.1 6 (2H, broad singlet) b) 2.7 6 (2H, triplet) c) 2.9 6 (2H, triplet) d) 3.8 6 (3H, singlet) e) 6.8 6 (2H, doublet) f) 7.1 6 (2H, doublet)arrow_forwardAvobenzone and dioxybenzone are two commercial sunscreens. Using the principles of solubility, predict which sunscreen is more readily washed off when an individual goes swimming. Explain your choice.arrow_forwardWhy do you wash the dichloromethane solution of your reductive amination product with sodium bicarbonate, rather than dilute aqueous HCl? a) Sodium bicarbonate is a good method of removing aldehydes from organic solvent.b) The amine product will be protonated by acid and remain in the aqueous layer as a salt.c) Sodium bicarbonate transfers the amine starting material into the aqueous layer.d) Sodium bicarbonate reacts with leftover NaBH(OAc)3 and removes it from the mixture.arrow_forward
- Explain the solubility behavior of aniline, diethylamine and N,N-diethylaniline in water.arrow_forwardAt least three chemical reactions Methyl chavicol (estragole) C10H120 can undergo?arrow_forwardYou have a mixture of an aryl halide and a carboxylic acid that you wish to separate (both are solids). Both are soluble in diethyl ether. Explain ALL the steps you would take to obtain the two compounds in pure form from your sample.arrow_forward
