Textbook Question
Chapter 24.2, Problem 5P
Instead of adding to the 4a position and protonating N-5, the thiolate ion could have added to the 10a position and protonated N-l. (The numbering system is on page 1071.) Why is addition to the 4a position favored? (Hint: Which nitrogen is a stronger base?)

Forward direction is favored because C is not well solvated, making Ca stronger base than B.
Forward direction is favored because C is not well solvated, making Ca weaker base than B.
Reverse direction is favored because C is not well solvated, making Ca weaker base than B.
Reverse direction is favored because C is not well solvated, making Ca stronger base than B.
7. For compound A in acid, it is the hydroxyl that is protonated
to a greater extent than the carbonyl oxygen. However, for
compound B in acid, it is the carbonyl oxygen that is
protonated to a greater extent than the hydroxyl oxygen.
Explain this difference.
