Question
Chapter 3.7, Problem 3.10P
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The configuration for an enantiomer of naproxen has to be assigned.
Concept Introduction:
Priority rules:
- Priorities based on
atomic number
- When priority cannot be assigned on the basis of the atoms bonded directly to the chiral center
- Atoms participating in a double or triple bond are considered to be bonded to an equivalent number of phantom atoms.
For example,
- Priority assignment is made at the first point of difference between groups (should not be based on the larger group).
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The percentage of R and S enantiomers in the mixture has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Enantiomeric excess:
It is the difference betweenthe percentages of twoenantiomers in a given mixture.
