Question
Chapter 15.SE, Problem 46AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Given that 1-phenyl-2-butene has an ultraviolet absorption at λmax = 208nm (∈ = 8000). On treatment with a small amount of strong acid it isomerizes to give a new compound with λmax = 250nm (∈ = 15,800). A structure for the isomer is to be proposed and a mechanism for its formation has to be suggested.
Concept introduction:
Among two isomers with same molecular formula, the isomer that has extended conjugation will have a higher λmax value than the other.
To propose:
A structure for the isomer which has an ultraviolet absorption at λmax = 250 nm (∈ = 15,800) obtained when 1-phenyl-2-butene with λmax = 208 nm (∈ = 8000) is treated with strong acids. Further to propose a mechanism for its formation.

2) There are many forms of cancer, all of which involve abnormal cell growth. The growth and
production of cells, called cell proliferation, is known to involve an enzyme called protein
farnesyltransferase (PFTase). It is thought that inhibitors pf PFTase may be useful as anticancer
drugs. The following molecule showed moderate activity as a potential PFTase inhibitor. Draw all
stereoisomers of this compound.
