Textbook Question
Chapter 2.8, Problem 29P
Fosamax has six acidic groups. The structure of the active form of the drug is shown in the box. (Notice that the phosphorus atom in Fosamax and the sulfur atom in Problem 30 can be surrounded by more than eight electrons since P and S are below the second row of the periodic table.)
- a. The OH groups bonded to phosphorus are the strongest acids of the six groups. Why?
- b. Which of the remaining four groups is the weakest acid?
