Chapter 28, Problem 28.14P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of a starting material which gives stereoisomer of the product with the R configuration at the isotopically substituted carbon in the given reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The naming of the chiral center and geometric isomers are based on Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules. If the priority assigned to each group attached to the chiral center in a molecule is in a clockwise direction, then it is the R stereoisomer, and if this is counter-clockwise, then it is the S stereoisomer. R and S stereoisomer are mirror images of each other.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The structure of another starting material which gives stereoisomer of the product with the R configuration at the isotopically substituted carbon in the given reaction is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The naming of the chiral center and geometric isomers are based on Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules. If the priority assigned to each group attached to the chiral center in a molecule is in a clockwise direction, then it is the R stereoisomer, and if this is counter-clockwise, then it is the S stereoisomer. R and S stereoisomer are mirror images of each other.
