Gamma(y)-amino butyric acid (GABA) is a neurotransmitter (a chemical that is used to send signals from one neuron to another) of the mammalian central nervous system. In order to understand how GABA works, conformationally restricted analogues, such as compound 1, have been made. During a synthesis of compound 1, compound 2 was subjected to allylic bromination using NBS and a radical initiator (AIBN) instead of light (Aust. J. Chem. 1981, 34, 2231-2236). H₂N.

1. Bicyclic keto compounds such as camphor react predictably with nucleophiles according to steric influences; this effect has been termed steric approach control. In contrast, the reaction of nucleophiles with simple acyclic and monocyclic keto compounds are influenced primarily by thermodynamic factors; this effect has been termed product development control. Given the following reaction, predict the identity of the major product and provide a rationale for your selection. ОН NABH4 t-Bu. t-Bu t-Bu. ELOH 1 2
A common illicit synthesis of methamphetamine involves an interesting variation of the Birch reduction. A solution of ephedrine in alcohol is added to liquid ammonia, followed by several pieces of lithium metal. The Birch reduction usually reduces the aromatic ring, but in this case it eliminates the hydroxy group of ephedrine to give methamphetamine. Propose a mechanism, similar to that for the Birch reduction, to explain this unusual course of the reaction.

The Dess–Martin reaction reacts an alcohol with the Dess–Martin periodinane. The first step displaces one of the acetate groups on the periodinane with the alcohol. A base then deprotonates one of the alpha protons, forming a new carbonyl bond, iodinane and acetic acid. The oxidation stops at this stage to give the aldehyde. Both Swern and Dess–Martin conditions will also convert a secondary alcohol to a ketone. Now apply what has just been discussed. Draw the major organic product.
