Draw a stepwise mechanism for the formation of A from an alcohol and acid chloride. A was converted in one step to blattellaquinone, the sex pheromone of the female German cockroach Blattella germanica.
One step in the synthesis of the antihistamine fexofenadine (Section 23.5) involves acid-catalyzed hydration of the triple bond in A. Draw a stepwise mechanism for this reaction and explain why only ketone B is formed.
Aziridines are heterocycles that contain an N atom in a three-membered ring. Like epoxides, aziridines are strained and reactive because the 60° bond angles of the three-membered ring deviate greatly from the theoretical tetrahedral bond angle. One step in the synthesis of the drug oseltamivir (trade name Tamiflu, Section 3.2) involves the conversion of amine X to diamine Y, a reaction that occurs by way of an intermediate aziridine. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of X to Y. Indicate the structure of the aziridine intermediate, and explain the trans stereochemistry of the two amines in Y.
