(a)
Interpretation: In the given pair of species, the group that has higher priority in
Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing

Concept introduction: A carbon atom that has four nonequivalent atoms or groups attached to it is known as chiral carbon atom. Chiral carbon centers are also called as asymmetric or stereogenic centers.
The priorities of the atoms that are directly attached to the stereogenic center are assigned in the order of decreasing atomic number. An atom of higher atomic number gets higher priority.

- Assign a priority order (from least to highest priority) to each of the following sets of groups: I. -OCH II. -NH(CH3)2 III. CH2NH2 IV. -OH A. IV, I, III, II B. III, II, IV, I C. II, III, IV, I D. III, IV, I, IIarrow_forwardWhich group is of lower priority than –CH=CH2 according to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules. –CH=C(CH3)2 –C(CH3)3 –CH(CH3)2 –CH=CHCl a b c darrow_forwardWhich group in following pair is assigned the higher priority? −I, −Brarrow_forward
- Arrange each set in order of decreasing priority using Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules (1 for highest priority). d) _____-Cl, _____-OH, _____-H, _____-NH2 e) _____–CO2CH3, _____-CO2H, _____-OH, _____-OCH3arrow_forwardAssign a priority order (from least to highest priority) to each of the folliowing sets of groups: I. -CH(CH3)2 II. -CH3 III. -H IV. -NH2 A. III, IV, II, I B. IV, I, III, II C. III, II, IV, I D. III, II, I, IVarrow_forward1. Consider the following eqm: SO2(g) + NO2(g) ⇌ NO(g) + SO3(g)What effect will adding SO3 have on the rxn?What effect will removing NO2 have on the rxn? 2. Consider the following exothermic rxn at eqm: C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) ⇌ 4H2O(l) + 3CO2(g)What effect will increasing the temperature have on the rxn?What effect will increasing the pressure have on the rxn?arrow_forward
- When determining R AND S rank these groups from highest to lowest priorityarrow_forwardFocus only on carbon 1 For carbon 1, which group has the highest priority? a,b,c or d?why? What enantiomer is carbon 1? R or S?arrow_forwardIs this compound E or Z designation? It looks like the two Cl would be of higher proirity than the CHCl and the H on the other side, but I am not sure if this would be considered the same side or opposite sides. When splitting the bond vertically down the middle, the two Cl are on the same side, but opposite sides from the CHCl and the H. I am unsure if this compound is Z or E designation.arrow_forward
