- 27. Which of the following statements about cholesterol is not correct? CH3 CH3 H. d но Cholesterol (a) Cholesterol is a steroid that contains a tetracyclic ring system. (b) Cholesterol is a steroid that contains 8 chiral carbons and can form 28 or 256 stereoisomers. (c) Each atom or group attached to a ring-junction carbon (i.e., carbons a -e) is in a trans or axial position. Because of this the tetracyclic ring system is mostly flat. (d) Cholesterol is used to synthesized vitamin D, bile acids, sex hormones, and adrenocorticoid hormones. (e) Cholesterol is not found in the cell membranes of animals.arrow_forwardGiven the structure of ascorbic acid (vitamin C):(a) Is ascorbic acid a carboxylic acid?(b) Compare the acid strength of ascorbic acid (pKa = 4.71) with acetic acid.(c) Predict which proton in ascorbic acid is the most acidic.(d) Draw the form of ascorbic acid that is present in the body (aqueous solution, pH = 7.4)arrow_forward(a) Predict the product of the reaction of KOH with 1-amino propane. (b) Predict the product of a deprotonated ethanol (an “ethanolate anion", O-CH2-CH3) with phenol (hydroxybenzene). (c) Predict the product of propanoic acid with deprotonated ethanol (an “ethanolate anion", O-CH2-CH3).arrow_forward
- (a) Give the omega designation for the following fatty acid: Но (b) Give the omega designation for the following fatty acid: HOarrow_forwardSeveral compounds have been found to inhibit -lactamase, and drugs based on these compounds can be taken in combination with penicillins and cephalosporins to restore their effectiveness when resistance is known to be a problem. The commonly prescribed formulation called Augmentin is a combination of the -lactamase inhibitor shown below with amoxicillin (shown above). It is used to treat childhood ear infections when resistance is suspected, and many kids know it as the white liquid that tastes like bananas. Which of the statements below are true statements? 1. The stereochemistry of the fusion between the four-and five-membered rings in the inhibitor and amoxicillin are different. 2. The inhibitor possesses enol ether and allylic alcohol functional groups while the antibiotic possesses a phenol and a secondary amide functional group. 3. Neither the inhibitor nor the antibiotic contains strained rings. 4. Both 1 and 2 are true.arrow_forward1 Hyaluronic acid acts as a lubricant in the synovial fluid of joints. In rheumatoid arthritis, inflammation breaks hyaluronic acid down to smaller molecules. Under these conditions, what happens to the lubricating power of the synovial fluid?arrow_forward
