Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The conversion of given ball-and-stick model of androsterone to a skeletal structure using wedges and dashed wedges around all stereogenic centers is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Steroids, a group of tetracyclic lipids composed of one five-membered ring and three six-membered rings. These rings are lettered by A, B, C, and D. Most of the steroids contain two angular methyl groups. These methyl groups are numbered as C18 and C19 respectively.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The conversion of given ball-and-stick model of androsterone to a three dimensional representation using chair cyclohexane rings is to be stated.

Concept introduction: Steroids, a group of tetracyclic lipids composed of one five-membered ring and three six-membered rings. These rings are lettered by A, B, C, and D. Most of the steroids contain two angular methyl groups. These methyl groups are numbered as C18 and C19 respectively.
