Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic center at
Concept introduction: The stereochemistry of the compound is determined by prioritizing the groups attached to its stereogenic center. The groups are prioritized on the basis of
(b)
Interpretation: The two isomeric products formed on reaction of A with
Concept introduction: Zincborohydride is a metal hydride reagent. It is a mild reducing agent which reduces
(c)
Interpretation: The reagent used to convert the A to the single stereoisomer X is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The chiral oxazaborolidine catalysts are enantiomeric selective reducing reagent. The carbonyl group of ketones are reduced to form one stereoisomer in the enantiomeric excess.

- 2. Draw ALL possible structural and stereochemical (if applicable) isomers. Please include enols (if oxygen is present) and enamines (if nitrogen is present), and any E and Z isomers in this analysis. a. C₂H4O b. a. C₂H₂O C. b. C4H₂O C₂H₂Narrow_forwardThe following scheme shows two reactions starting from alkene X. Hydroboration-oxidation of X gives the product as a racemic mixture of enantiomers. Based on the information below, determine the structure of compound A. Compound A is a racemic mixture of enantiomers. Draw only one enantiomer, using wedged and dashed bonds where appropriate. Do not provide compound X. n 6 1. BH3 Br2 A 2. H2O2, NaOH H2O OH plus enantiomer Create OscerSketch Answer 6arrow_forwardG.152.arrow_forward
