(a)
Interpretation:
The synthesis of atenolol has to be shown.
Concept introduction:
Esterification: Esterification reaction is the reaction of acid react with excess of alcohol in the presence of either acid or base catalyst to forms an ester.
(b)
Interpretation:
The reason is to be explained for the amination of ester rather than acid chloride to ester.
(c)
Interpretation:
The possible stereoisomer’s has to be shown if the product is chiral.
Concept introduction:
Chiral:
A molecule is non superimposable on its mirror image is called chiral molecule. Four different atoms attached to a carbon atom is called chiral molecule.
Isomer: A molecule having the same molecular formula but with different chemical structure is called isomer.
Stereoisomers: Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same molecular formula and they differ only in arrangement of atom in three-dimensional space.
Enantiomers: A compound which is non-superimposable mirror image is called enantiomers.
Diastereomers: A compound which is non-superimposable and non-mirror image is called diastereomers.
Racemic mixture: A racemic mixture is simply a mixture containing an equal amount of each enantiomer.
