Please provide a detailed and clear explanation according to what question asked. Also, please provide a relevant diagram. Can ignore question ( i ) and   ( ii ) if it violates the policy.

b. In a pharmaceutical research company located in Selangor, a pharmacist and an organic chemist worked together to produce two medicines which are ephedrine and enalapril. Enalapril is generally used to treat hypertension. Then, ephedrine is extracted from a plant called Ma Huang and one of the benefits is to reverse airway obstruction among asthma patients. The structure of these two compounds is shown in FIGURE Q3b. OH .N. 'N' OH ephedrine enalapril FIGURE Q3b i. Draw the Lewis structure of ephedrine. ii. By redrawing the structure of enalapril, label and name THREE (3) functional groups present in the compound.
