Question 24 ### Assigning R, S Configurations in Chiral CentersThis section addresses the assignment of R and S configurations to chiral centers in specific molecules. #### Molecules:**A. Norepinephrine**- Structure: - Contains a benzene ring with two hydroxyl groups (OH) and a side chain that includes an amino group (NH2) and a hydroxyl group (OH). - The chiral center is denoted with a dashed line indicating bonds projecting into the plane and a solid wedge indicating bonds projecting away from the plane.**B. Alanine**- Structure: - This amino acid has a carboxyl group (COOH), an amino group (NH2), a methyl group (CH3), and a hydrogen (H) attached to the central chiral carbon. - The projection indicates the tetrahedral geometry required for chiral centers.**C. Tartaric Acid**- Structure: - Contains two carboxyl groups (COOH), a hydroxyl group (OH), and a hydrogen (H) on the central carbon linked to another similar chiral carbon. - Uses lines and wedges to depict the spatial arrangement of bonds.**D. Dihydrocarvone**- Structure: - Features a cyclohexane ring with a ketone group (O) and additional substituents including hydrogen atoms and a side chain (CH2). - Chiral centers are shown with lines and wedges for spatial interpretation.The configuration of this carbon atom (A) is marked with **R**.#### Question:The configuration of the carbon atom (A) is ___ R ___.**Options:**- True- False### Explanation of Graphs/Diagrams:Each molecular structure provided employs conventional chemical notation to highlight chiral centers:1. **Solid Wedges** indicate bonds that extend out of the plane of the paper towards the viewer.2. **Dashed Wedges** represent bonds that extend into the plane of the paper away from the viewer.3. **Lines** indicate bonds in the plane of the paper.Proper interpretation of these spatial arrangements helps in assigning the R (rectus) or S (sinister) configuration, following the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog priority rules.
