2) There are many forms of cancer, all of which involve abnormal cell growth. The growth and
production of cells, called cell proliferation, is known to involve an enzyme called protein
farnesyltransferase (PFTase). It is thought that inhibitors pf PFTase may be useful as anticancer
drugs. The following molecule showed moderate activity as a potential PFTase inhibitor. Draw all
stereoisomers of this compound.
