Chapter 19, Problem 19.47P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The drawings of the alternative chair conformations of A should be completed. The more stable conformations should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

The carbon atoms in a ring structure can be rotated upward or downward to form different chair conformations of the same compound. These conformations are called alternative chair conformations.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The two functional groups in B that react to form the compound A through cyclization should be identified. The new functional group formed to close the carbon ring should be identified.

Concept Introduction:

A functional group is a combination of atoms which act together to show typical chemical reactions when present in a compound.

Cyclization refers to the chemical reaction through which one or more carbon rings are formed in a compound.

5. Ribose's structure is ОН HO ОН ОН a) Draw using the arrow formalism the reaction of linear ribose to make a 5-membered ring. b) What is the name of the resulting functional group? c) Given that reaction of alcohols (such as RCH2OH) with carbonyls (such as HCO-R') to create this functional group is typically not thermodynamically favored, why does most ribose in water exist as a 5-membered ring? A few word answer is fine. d) AG°for this reaction is about - 5 kJ/mol. Assuming that you start with a 1 mM solution of ribose in water, what is the approximate concentration at equilibrium of (i) the linear form? (ii) The cyclic form? (A good answer should be correct within 20%, e.g. it is fine to approximate 9 mM as 10 mM, but it is not okay to approximate 0.1 mM as 1 mM.) e) This reaction creates a new stereocenter. Please indicate it with a *. f) Consider the starting point for synthesis of purines like ATP, which is PRPP (pheseboribosylevOrhesehate) НО НО LOLOH HO ОН HO OH Pyrophosphate…
