Question
Chapter 18.SE, Problem 69GP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Given that the enzyme chorismate mutase catalyzes a Claisen rearrangement of chorismate. The structure of prephenate obtained as the product is to be shown.
Concept introduction:
In Claisen rearrangement allyl phenyl ethers undergo rearrangement when heated to 200-250°C to yield an o-allylphenol. It is a case of (3, 3) sigmatrophic rearrangement.
To show:
The structure of prephenate obtained as the product obtained when chorismate undergoes Claisen rearrangement catalyzed by the enzyme chorismate mutase.
