Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The structural features that give docetaxel a better water solubility profile are to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The solubility of solute in solution depends upon the polarity of solute and solvent. The solute and solvent of same polarity are soluble with each other and insoluble if the polarity is different.
(b)
Interpretation: Three more resonance structures of carbamate are to be drawn and the resonance structures are to be ranked in order of increasing stability.
Concept introduction: The delocalization of lone pair or free electrons from one atom to another atom is known as resonance. The stability of compound depends upon the number of resonating structures. More the resonating structures of a compound, more will its stability.
(c)
Interpretation: A stepwise mechanism for the hydrolysis of a carbamate with a tert-butoxy group is to be drawn.
Concept introduction: The replacement or substitution of one
(d)
Interpretation: The products formed by the hydrolysis of docetaxel with aqueous acid are to be drawn.
Concept introduction: The hydrolysis of ester bond under acidic conditions leads to the formation of two compounds, one that has alcoholic group

- Give the IUPAC or common name for each compound. (A - E)arrow_forwardAspirin is the common name for the compound acetylsalicylic acid, widely used as a fever reducer and as a pain killer. Salicylic acid, whose name comes from Salix, the willow family of plants, was derived from willow bark extracts. In folk medicine, willow bark teas were used as headache remedies and other tonics. Nowadays, salicylic acid is administered in the form of aspirin which is less irritating to the stomach than salicylic acid. To prepare aspirin, salicylic acid is reacted with an excess of acetic anhydride. A small amount of a strong acid is used as a catalyst which speeds up the reaction. In this experiment, phosphoric acid will be used as the catalyst. The excess acetic acid will be quenched with the addition of water. The aspirin product is not very soluble in water so the aspirin product will precipitate when water is added. The synthesis reaction of aspirin is shown below: Actic anhydride 5 ml.

- Why does benzoic acid have a higher melting point than naphthalene? Relate it to their structure and exhibited IMFA.arrow_forwardStrawberry growers have used large quantities of methyl bromide (b.p. 4 °C) to sterilize the soil before planting their crops. Like some of the freons, methyl bromide can diffuse up into the stratosphere, where it damages the protective ozone layer. Agricultural chemists have suggested using methyl iodide (b.p. 43 °C) as a replacement for methyl bromide. Why is methyl iodide likely to be more toxic to agricultural pests (and people) than methyl bromide?arrow_forwardDraw a structural formula for the product formed by treating butanal with reagent.
