Chapter 14, Problem 5LGP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structures of the nicotinamide ring in NADH and NAD+ are to be drawn and the way in which the hydrogen transfer occurs in the conversion of NADH to NAD+ is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Nicotinamide exists in the oxidized form in NADH and gets converted into an aromatic pyridinium ring on reduction, leading to the formation of NAD+.

Tamoxifen is a drug used to prevent and treat breast cancer. What are all the possible metabolic reactions for this drug? Aromatic hydroxylation Epoxidation ON-dealkylation Benzylic hydroxylation O Epoxidation followed by epoxide hydrolysis
To solve this problem, you need to read the description of the Hammett s, r treatment given in Chapter 15, Problem 92. When the rate constants for the hydrolysis of several morpholine enamines of para-substituted propiophenones are determined at pH 4.7, the r value is positive; however, when the rates of hydrolysis are determined at pH 10.4, the r value is negative.a. What is the rate-determining step of the hydrolysis reaction when it is carried out in a basic solution?b. What is the rate-determining step of the hydrolysis reaction when it is carried out in an acidic solution?
The following bicyclic ketone has two a-carbons and three a-hydrogens. When this molecule is treated with D,O in the presence of an acid catalyst, only two of the three a-hydrogens exchange with deuterium. The a-hydrogen at the bridgehead does not exchange. H these two a-hydrogens exchange H. this a-hydrogen does not exchange H How do you account for the fact that two a-hydrogens do exchange but the third does not? You will find it helpful to build models of the enols by which exchange of a-hydrogens occurs.
