2,4,6-Trinitrophenol is known by the common name picricacid. Picric acid is a solid but is readily soluble in water. Insolution, it is used as a biological tissue stain. As a solid,it is also known to be unstable and may explode. In thisway, it is similar to 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT). Draw thestructures of picric acid and TNT. Why is picric acid readily soluble in water, whereas TNT is not?
Isoamyl acetate is the common name of the substance most responsible for the characteristic odor of bananas. Write a structural formula for isoamyl acetate, given the information that it is an ester in which the carbonyl group bears a methyl substituent and there is a 3-methylbutyl group attached to one of the oxygens.
Give at least 5 examples of biological compounds having an ether functional group and identify the biochemical importance of each compound.
