Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic centers in the given compound are to be labeled.
Concept introduction: An atom containing four different atoms or groups produces stereoisomers on exchange of any two groups. These centers are known as stereogenic centers.
Answer to Problem 25.1P
The stereogenic centers in the given compound are shown in Figure 1.
Explanation of Solution
The stereogenic centers in the given compound are shown below.
Figure 1
The highlighted nitrogen atom possesses four different groups. Hence, this is a stereogenic center.
The stereogenic centers in the given compound are shown in Figure 1.

- Locating Stereogenic Centers Locate the stereogenic centers in each drug. Albuterol is a bronchodilator— that is, it widens airways—so it is used to treat asthma. Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic used extensively in developing countries because of its low cost.arrow_forwardSaquinavir (trade name Invirase) is a protease inhibitor, used to treat HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). a.Locate all stereogenic centers in saquinavir, and label each stereogenic center as R or S. b.Draw the enantiomer of saquinavir. c.Draw a diastereomer of saquinavir. d.Draw a constitutional isomer that contains at least one different functional group.arrow_forwardDraw all stereoisomers formed in each reaction.arrow_forward
