Chapter 11, Problem 50P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanistic explanation for the compounds, like α haloalcohols, are unstable and not be isolated, is to be proposed.

Concept introduction:

α haloalcohols are the compounds that contain an alcoholic group and a halogen group at alpha position that is the carbon, which contains alcoholic group.

Stability of compounds depends upon the equilibrium shift. If the equilibrium shifts to the right, then the product is more stable and if the equilibrium shifts to the left, then the reactant is more stable.

α haloalcohol has one halogen atom and one alcoholic group, due to which it releases hydrogen and halogen atom, and forms more stable ketone.

Estrogens are female sex hormones, the most potent of which is B-estradiol. OH AYA Но B-Estradiol In recent years, chemists have focused on designing and synthesizing molecules that bind to estrogen receptors. One target of this research has been nonsteroidal estrogen antagonists, compounds that interact with estrogen receptors and block the effects of both endogenous and exogenous estrogens. A feature common to one type of nonste- roidal estrogen antagonist is the presence of a 1,2-diphenylethylene with one of the benzene rings bearing a dialkylaminoethoxyl substituent. The first nonsteroidal estrogen antagonist of this type to achieve clinical importance was tamoxifen, now an important drug in the treatment of breast cancer. Tamoxifen has the Z configuration shown here. NMeg A B NMeg ? ОН Tamoxifen Propose reagents for the conversion of A to tamoxifen. Note: The final step in this synthesis gives a mixture of E and Z isomers.
