Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Interpret the structure of cytidine.
Concept Introduction:
A nucleoside only consist of nitrogenous base attached with pentose sugar. Phosphate group is not present in it.
Adenine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside adenosine, thymine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside thymidine, guanine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside guanidine and cytosine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside cytidine.
(b)
Interpretation:
Interpret the structure of deoxycytidine.
Concept Introduction:
A nucleoside only consist of nitrogenous base attached with pentose sugar. Phosphate group is not present in it.
Adenine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside adenosine, thymine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside thymidine, guanine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside guanidine and cytosine attached with sugar produce a nucleoside cytidine.

- 14 Question (1 point) Disiamylborane adds to a triple bond to give an alkenylborane. Upon oxidation with OH, H2O2, the alkenylborane will form an enol that tautomerizes to an aldehyde. In the first box below, draw the mechanism arrows for the reaction of disiamylborane with the alkyne, and in the last box draw the structure of the aldehyde. 4th attempt Feedback i > 3rd attempt OH, H2O2 i See Periodic Table See Hintarrow_forwardanswer with mechanisms and steps. handwritten please!arrow_forwardHello I need some help with Smartwork. For drawing structure B, I know the correct answer is CH₃B₂, but when I try to type it in, it keeps giving me CH₄BH₃ instead. Do you know how I should write it properly? Should I use a bond or something else?arrow_forward
