Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The chiral center in propranolol needs to be located.

Concept introduction:

A carbon center having all the different four substituents attached to it is known as a chiral center. If one of the four groups is the same, the carbon center will be achiral in nature.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The enantiomers of propranolol molecule needs to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

If the molecules have the chiral center, the different forms of the molecules which are optically active are known as enantiomers of each other.

Draw the products of this reduction of a ketone with sodium borohydride. Use a dash or wedge bond to indicate the stereochemistry of substituents on asymmetric centers, where applicableIgnore any inorganic byproducts. 1) NaBH4 2) HCI/H2O Select to Draw
Why do you think people who live at high altitudes are advised to add salt to water when boiling food like pasta? What mole fraction of NaCl is needed to raise the boiling point of H2O by 3˚C?  Does the amount of salt added to water (typically about one teaspoon to four quarts of water) substantially change the boiling point? (Kb (H2O) = 0.51˚C/molal.)
