l Aldehydes and ketones react reversibly with two equivalents of alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst to give acetals. Alcohols are poor nucleophiles, and so protonation of the carbonyl oxygen is used to make the carbonyl carbon a stronger electrophile. Addition of the first equivalent of alcohol gives a hemiacetal, a hydroxyether. Addition of the second equivalent of alcohol is accompanied by loss of water to yield the product acetal. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the mechanism. H₂C 2 CH₂OH HCI catalyst CH3 H3CO OCH3 H3C. CH3

Alkylbenzyldimethyl ammonium chloride is a leave-on skin antiseptic used to treat such things as cuts and cold sores. It is also the antiseptic in many hand sanitizers. It is actually a mixture of compounds that differ in the number of carbons (any even number between 8 and 18) in the alkyl group. Show three different sets of reagents (each set composed of an alkyl chloride and an amine) that can be used to synthesize the alkylbenzyldimethyl ammonium chloride shown here.

Prostaglandins are a class of eicosanoids, fatty acid derivatives involved in a variety of important phenomena, including fever, inflammation, and pain. The first step in prostaglandin synthesis involves the conversion of the 20-carbon fatty acid arachidonic acid to PGG2 by the enzyme prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase, or cyclooxy: Ibuprofen is one of several inhibitors of cyclooxogenase used therapeutically.

Isoerythrogenic acid, C18H26O2, is an acetylic fatty acid that turns a vivid blue on exposure to UV light. On Catalytic hydrogenation over a palladium catalyst, five molar equivalents of hydrogen are absorbed, and stearic acid, CH3(CH2)16CO2H, is produced. Ozonolysis of isoerythrogenic acid yields the following products: formaldehyde, CH2O, malonic acid, HO2CCH2CO2H, adipic acid, HO2C(CH2)4CO2H, and the aldehyde carboxylic acid, OHC(CH2)6CO2H. Provide a structure for isoerythrogenic acid.

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.
