Question
Chapter 7, Problem 7.7P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Number of stereoisomers possible for enanthotoxin has to be given.
Concept introduction:
Chiral centre:
A chiral molecule/ion is non-superimposable on its mirror image.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
There is one tetrahedral chiral centre (marked with an
) and three double bonds that can show cis-trans isomerism, so there are 24 or 16 possible stereoisomers.
Hence, the totally 16 isomer is possible.

Aspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid, widely used as a
fever reducer and as a pain killer. Salicylic acid, whose name comes from Salix, the
willow family of plants, was derived from willow bark extracts. In folk medicine, willow
bark teas were used as headache remedies and other tonics. Nowadays, salicylic acid
is administered in the form of aspirin which is less irritating to the stomach than salicylic
acid. To prepare aspirin, salicylic acid is reacted with an excess of acetic anhydride.
A small amount of a strong acid is used as a catalyst which speeds up the reaction. In
this experiment, phosphoric acid will be used as the catalyst. The excess acetic acid
will be quenched with the addition of water. The aspirin product is not very soluble in
water so the aspirin product will precipitate when water is added. The synthesis
reaction of aspirin is shown below:

Digitalis is a preparation made from the dried seeds and leaves of the purple foxglove,
Digitalis purpurea, a plant native to southern and central Europe and cultivated in the United
States. The preparation is a mixture of several active components, including digitalin. Digi-
talis is used in medicine to increase the force of myocardial contraction and as a conduction
depressant to decrease heart rate (the heart pumps more forcefully but less often).

The name “belladonna” (which means “beautiful lady”) probably comes from the fact that Roman women used extracts from this plant to make themselves more attractive. Atropine is widely used by ophthal mologists and optometrists to dilate the pupils for eye examination. Classify the amino group in atropine as primary, secondary, or tertiary. Locate all stereocenters in atropine. Account for the fact that atropine is almost insoluble in water (1 g in 455 mL of cold water) but atropine hydrogen sulfate is very soluble (1 g in 5 mL of cold water). Account for the fact that a dilute aqueous solution of atropine is basic (pH approximately 10.0).arrow_forwardWhen the conjugate acid of aniline, C6H5NH3+, reacts with the acetate ion, the following reaction takes place: C6H5NH3+(aq)+CH3COO(aq)C6H5NH2(aq)+CH3COOH(aq) If Kafor C6H5NH3+ is 1.35105 and Kafor CH3COOH is 1.86105 , what is K for the reaction?arrow_forward
- The amines are organic weak bases which are nitrogen-containing. In the early days of organic chemistry, basic amines derived from natural sources were known as “vegetable alkali”, but they are now referred to as alkaloids.
