(a) There are three carbon—carbon double bonds present in this molecule. Which of the three has the potential for cis/trans isomerism? Assign a cis or trans con?guration to each carbon-carbon double bond that has this possibility. (b) How many stereocenters are present in this molecule? How many stereoisomers are possible for it? (c) Are there any aromatic components in this molecule? (d) Consider the two carbon atoms marked with asterisks. Assign an R or S con?guration of each stereocenter. (e) Because of the presence of a 21-member ring, this molecule is described as a macrocycle. This ring is fashioned by three types of bonds, several carbon-carbon bonds, one ester, one hemiacetal, and one amide. Locate the ester and the hemiacetal.

- 15-44 Consider the structure of the immunosuppressant FK-506, a molecule shown to disrupt calcineurin- mediated signal transduction in T-lymphocytes. What is the molecular formula of this immunosuppressant? How manj' stereocenters are present in FK-506? Determine the maximum number of stereoisomers possible. Identify and label the various functional groups present. Consider the two stereocenters in this structure labeled with asterisks (*). Determine the absolute configuration of each stereocenter. FK-506 has been shown to exhibit moderate solubility in various organic solvents. Is this immunosuppressant expected to be soluble in ethanol (CH3CH2OH)? Consider the carbon atom labeled “1." Describe the geometry and approximate bond angles about this carbon atom. Draw the alternative chair conformations of the cyclohexane ring at the lower right of FK-506 and label the more stable conformation. Are there any aromatic components present in FK-506? Patients taking FK-506 have reported several side effects from this medication, including headaches, nausea or diarrhea, and slight shaking.

Values in °C are —42, 78, 117, and 198 CH3CH2CH2CH2OH CH3CH2OH HOCH2CH2OH ch3ch2ch3arrow_forward15-7 Answer true or false. The cis and trans stereoisomers of 2-butene are achiral. The carbonyl carbon of an aldehyde, ketone, carboxylic acid, or ester cannot be a stereocenter. Stereoisomers have the same connectivity of their atoms. Constitutional isomers have the same connectivity of their atoms. An unmarked cube is achiral. A human foot is chiral. Every object in nature has a mirror image. The most common cause of chirality in organic molecules is the presence of a tetrahedral carbon atom with four different groups bonded to it. If a molecule is not superposable on its mirror image, the molecule is chiral.arrow_forward
- 16-6 Answer true or false. te/7-Butylamine is a 3° amine. In an aromatic amine, one or more of the groups bonded to nitrogen is an aromatic ring. In a heterocyclic amine, the amine nitrogen is one of the atoms of a ring. The Lewis structures of both NH4~ and CH4show the same number (eight) of valence electrons, and the VSEPR model predicts tetrahedral geometry for each. There are four constitutional isomers with the molecular formula CgH^N.arrow_forward12-77 Show how to convert cyclopentene into these compounds. 1,2-Dibromocyclopentane Cyclopentanol Iodocyclopentane Cyclopentanearrow_forward17-27 Pentane, 1-butanol, and butanal all have approximately the same molecular weights but different boiling points.
