- The following three derivatives of succinimide are anticonvulsants that have found use in the treatment of epilepsy, particularly petit mal seizures. Q. Show how this same synthetic strategy can be used to prepare ethosuximide and methsuximide.arrow_forwardShow how the "o-chlorobenzoic acid" will be synthesized, beginning with benzene or toluene and any reagents required. Assume para, in ortho, para mixtures, is the main product (and separable from ortho).arrow_forwardShow how to synthesize the following amines from the indicated starting materials byacylation–reduction. b) N-benzylaniline from anilinearrow_forward
- Following is a synthesis for toremifene, a nonsteroidal estrogen antagonist whose structure is closely related to that of tamoxifen. (a) This synthesis makes use of two blocking groups, the benzyl (Bn) group and the tetrahydropyranyl (THP) group. Draw a structural formula of each group and describe the experimental conditions under which it is attached and removed. (b) Discuss the chemical logic behind the use of each blocking group in this synthesis. (c) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of D to E. (d) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of F to toremifene. (e) Is toremifene chiral? If so, which of the possible stereoisomers are formed in this synthesis?arrow_forwardShow how to synthesize the following amines from the indicated starting materials byacylation–reduction.(a) N-butylpiperidine from piperidinearrow_forwardPropose syntheses of the following derivative of diethyl malonate, of which is a starting material for synthesis of a barbiturate.arrow_forward
