Following is a synthesis for toremifene, a nonsteroidal estrogen antagonist whose structure is closely related to that of tamoxifen. (a) This synthesis makes use of two blocking groups, the benzyl (Bn) group and the tetrahydropyranyl (THP) group. Draw a structural formula of each group and describe the experimental conditions under which it is attached and removed. (b) Discuss the chemical logic behind the use of each blocking group in this synthesis. (c) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of D to E. (d) Propose a mechanism for the conversion of F to toremifene. (e) Is toremifene chiral? If so, which of the possible stereoisomers are formed in this synthesis?
A step in a synthesis of PGE1 (prostaglandin E1, alprostadil) is the reaction of a trisubstituted cyclohexene with bromine to form a bromolactone. Propose a mechanism for formation of this bromolactone and account for the observed stereochemistry of each substituent on the cyclohexane ring. Alprostadil is used as a temporary therapy for infants born with congenital heart defects that restrict pulmonary blood flow. It brings about dilation of the ductus arteriosus, which in turn increases blood flow in the lungs and blood oxygenation.
The following reactivity order has been found for the saponification of alkyl acetates by aqueous NaOH. Explain. CH3CO2CH3 > CH3CO2CH2CH3 > CH3CO2CH(CH3)2 > CH3CO2C(CH3)3

(ii) Suggest a synthesis of ketone 6 from (E)-3,4-(dimethoxy) cinnamic acid 9. You can assume that any other reagents will be made available to you. MeO MeO 9 CO₂H steps MeO MeO 6
In an aqueous solution containing sodium bicarbonate, aniline reacts quickly withbromine to give 2,4,6-tribromoaniline. Nitration of aniline requires very strong conditions,however, and the yields (mostly m-nitroaniline) are poor.(a) What conditions are used for nitration, and what form of aniline is present under theseconditions?
When a mixture of ketone 11 and \alpha, \beta - unsaturated carbonyl 12 are exposed to substoichiometric amounts of NaOMe, product B is obtained selectively. Subsequent treatment of B with excess NaOMe leads to the exclusive formation of tricyclic product 13. (1) Suggest a structure for B and provide a reason for its selective formation. (ii) Provide a reaction mechanism for the formation of 13, which accounts for its selective formation.
