Clopidogrel is the generic name for Plavix, a drug used to prevent the formation of blood clots in patients that have a history of heart attacks or strokes. A single enantiomer of clopidogrel can be prepared in three steps from the chiral αhydroxy acid A. Identify B and C in the following reaction sequence, and designate the conguration of the enantiomer formed by this route as R or S.
What organic product is formed when 1‑methylcyclopentene is treated with NMMO in the presence of H2O and a catalytic amound of OsO4? Clearly show stereochemistry by drawing a wedge and dashed bond for each chiral carbon.
Only draw one stereoisomer if more than one can be formed.
Treatment of compound A (C8H17Br) with NaOCH2CH3 affords two constitutional isomers B and C. Ozonolysis of B affords CH2=O and (CH3CH2CH2)2C=O. Ozonolysis of C affords CH3CH2CH2COCH3 and CH3CH2CHO. What is the structure of A?
