16. When cis-1,2-cyclopentanediol reacts with acetone in dry HCl, compound M is formed. What do you expect the hydrolysis of compound M to be when subjected (i) to base; and, (ii) acid resistant to base; resistant to acid resistant to base; readily hydrolyzed by acid readily hydrolyzed by base; resistant to acid readily hydrolyzed by base; readily hydorlyzed by acid 17. Following (16), would you expect that a similar compound be formed i the reactant was trans-1,2-cyclopentanediol? Why is this so? O Yes; hydroxyl groups are on opposite side No; hydroxyl groups are on opposite site O Yes; hydroxyl groups are on the same side O No; hydroxyl groups are on the same side

Although codeine occurs in low concentration in the opium poppy, most of the codeine used in medicine is prepared from morphine (the principal component of opium) by the following reaction. Explain why selective methylation occurs at only one OH in morphine to give codeine. Codeine is a less potent and less addictive analgesic than morphine.
Propose suitable reagents to accomplish the following transformations.

(c) The sedative, R-thalidomide, was once used to address symptoms of morning sickness in expectant mothers, however, when it was discovered that S- thalidomide causes deformities in infants, the use of R-thalidomide as a sedative was discontinued. With the help of a reaction mechanism, explain why enantiopure R-thalidomide can not be safely used as a sedative without affecting infants
