The relation between the following Fischer Projection formulas should be determined and also whether they are identical molecules or enantiomers should be identified:

General, Organic, & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 15, Problem 15.55P , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

Organic compounds are the compounds which are mainly composed C and H atoms. The branch of chemistry that deals with preparation, reactions, and properties of organic compounds is said to be organic chemistry. The molecular formula of organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols. The structural formula represents all the bonded atoms with chemical bonds and the arrangement of atoms in the molecule. The compounds with same molecular formula and different structural formula are known as isomers. Isomers can be classified as constitutional isomers and stereoisomers.

Constitutional isomers can be defined as the pair of molecules with the same molecular formula but different structural formula. Stereoisomers have same molecular and structural formula but they have different arrangement of atoms in the three-dimensional space.

20. The Brusselator. This hypothetical system was first proposed by a group work- ing in Brussels [see Prigogine and Lefever (1968)] in connection with spatially nonuniform chemical patterns. Because certain steps involve trimolecular reac tions, it is not a model of any real chemical system but rather a prototype that has been studied extensively. The reaction steps are A-X. B+X-Y+D. 2X+ Y-3X, X-E. 305 It is assumed that concentrations of A, B, D, and E are kept artificially con stant so that only X and Y vary with time. (a) Show that if all rate constants are chosen appropriately, the equations de scribing a Brusselator are: dt A-(B+ 1)x + x²y, dy =Bx-x²y. di
