Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

An explanation as to why the given compound is chiral is to stated.

Concept introduction:

Chiral compounds are those whose mirror images are not superimposable to each other. Enantiomers of the chiral compounds are the mirror image of each other. A compound can be chiral due to the presence of an asymmetric carbon or the chiral axis.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

An explanation as to why the given compound is chiral and it racemizes when heated is to stated.

Concept introduction:

Chiral compounds are those whose mirror images are not superimposable to each other. Enantiomers of the chiral compounds are the mirror image of each other. A compound can be chiral due to the presence of an asymmetric carbon or the chiral axis.

Can you please color-code and explain how to solve this and any molecular orbital diagram given? I'm so confused; could you provide baby steps regardless of which problem type they gave me?
Consider the following structure. OH Esmolol The synthesis of this compound uses a building block derived from either ethylene oxide or epichlorohydrin. 1) Determine which building block was used: | 2) Draw the structure of the nucleophiles that were used along with this building block in the synthesis of the molecule. • Draw one structure per sketcher. Add additional sketchers using the drop-down menu in the bottom right corner. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. Θε {n [
