Steroids are a class of organic compounds containing a specific tetracyclic skeleton (four rings), as seen in the compounds shown below. During efforts to synthesize a steroid that was isolated from the Atlantic starfish, the side chain of compound 1 was converted into the side chain of compound 2, as highlighted below. Propose a synthesis for this transformation. H,C H,C OH HC HC H. OAc = AcO AcO 2

Penicillins and other β-lactam antibiotics typically develop a resistance to bacteria due to bacterial synthesis of β-lactamase enzymes. Tazobactam, however, is able to inhibit the activity of the β-lactamase by trapping it, thereby preventing resistance from developing. Draw curved arrows to show the movement of electrons in this step of the reaction mechanism.
