Paroxetine (Paxil) is an antidepressant that is a member of a family of drugs known
as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIS). This family of drugs also includes
fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft). SSRIS work by inhibiting the reuptake of
the neurotransmitter serotonin in the synapses of the central nervous system follow-
ing release of serotonin during excitation of individual nerve cells. Between firings, the
serotonin is taken back up by a nerve cell in preparation for firing again. Inhibition of
reuptake has the effect of increasing the time serotonin molecules remain in the syn-
apses following excitation, leading to a therapeutic effect. In one synthesis of parox-
etine, the following reagents are used. Draw the structures of synthetic intermediates A

- γ-Butyrolactone (C4H6O2, GBL) is a biologically inactive compound that is converted to the biologically active recreational drug GHB (Section 19.5) by a lactonase enzyme in the body. Since γ-butyrolactone is more fat soluble than GHB, it is more readily absorbed by tissues and thus produces a faster onset of physiological symptoms. γ-Butyrolactone shows an absorption in its IR spectrum at 1770 cm−1 and the following 1H NMR spectral data: 2.28 (multiplet, 2 H), 2.48 (triplet, 2 H), and 4.35 (triplet, 2 H) ppm.

- Aziridines are heterocycles that contain an N atom in a three-membered ring. Like epoxides, aziridines are strained and reactive because the 60° bond angles of the three-membered ring deviate greatly from the theoretical tetrahedral bond angle. One step in the synthesis of the drug oseltamivir (trade name Tamiflu, Section 3.2) involves the conversion of amine X to diamine Y, a reaction that occurs by way of an intermediate aziridine. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the conversion of X to Y.

- In an attempt to synthesize compound C through a two-step process, a chemist discovered after completing the first step that they had inadvertently produced two distinct compounds, A and B.

OEt NaOEt ΕΙΟ A B In a chemical experiment, they noticed that both components, A and B, from a combined sample turned into a new compound, C, during the following stage. The task is to determine what compound C looks like and explain how compound A or B changes into compound C through a reaction.
