(A)Menthol, used to flavor various foods and tobacco, is the most stable stereoisomer of 2-isopropyl-5-methylcyclohexanol. Draw its most stable conformation. Is the hydroxyl group cis or trans to the isopropyl group? To the methyl group?
(b) Neomenthol is a stereoisomer of menthol. That is, it has the same constitution but differs in the arrangement of its atoms in space. Neomenthol is the second most stable stereoisomer of 2-isopropyl-5methylcyclohexanol; it is less stable than menthol but more stable than any other stereoisomer. Write the structure of neomenthol in its most stable conformation.
PGF 2a is a prostaglandin, a group of compounds that are responsible for inflammation (Section 19.6). (a) How many tetrahedral
stereogenic centers does PGF 2a contain? (b) How many double bonds can exist as cis and trans isomers? (c) Considering both
double bonds and tetrahedral stereogenic centers, what is the maximum number of stereoisomers that can exist for PGF20?
OH
HO
-CH₂CH=CH(CH₂)3COOH
