Question
Chapter 4, Problem 55P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The configuration of naproxen active ingredient has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
R and S nomenclature: it is used to assign the molecule using CIP rules.
The CIP rules are as follows:
- Select the chiral carbon and assign the numbers according to the decreasing
atomic mass of atoms attached to it. - If the numbering follows clockwise direction then the molecule is termed as R and if it follows anti-clockwise direction then molecule is termed as S.

In ordering boiling points, you would likely state, correctly, that, given constant carbon chain length, alkanes have the lowest boiling point, with amines a little higher, and alcohols much higher still. Considering that, for constant R-group, amines and alcohols have pretty much the same molar mass, then why should alcohols, with their O, have higher boiling pints than amines, with their N? Just using class discussions, what is different between them such that their physical properties are so different?arrow_forward
