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

(iii) Rank the carbonyl compounds given below in terms of their relative reactivity with sodium borohydride. RT R CH3 CI (iv) Suggest two factors which combine to make the aldehyde react with sodium borohydride at a different rate from the ketone. (v) Based on electronegativity one might assume that the ester and acid chloride possess similar reactivity towards nucleophiles. Suggest why this turns out not to be the case (your answer should mention resonance and inductive effects).

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.
Verapamil, a coronary artery vasodilator, is used in the treatment of angina caused by insufficient blood flow to cardiac muscle. Even though its effect on coronary vasculature tone was recognized over 30 years ago, only recently has its role as a calcium channel blocker become understood. Following is a retrosynthetic analysis leading to a convergent synthesis; it is convergent because (A) and (B) are made separately and then combined (i.e., the route converges) to give the final product. Convergent syntheses are generally much more efficient than those in which the skeleton is built up stepwise. Q. How do you account for the regioselectivity of the nucleophilic displacement involved in converting (C) to (B)?

(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
