Chapter 4.10, Problem 4.24P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Most common radical in human body and its biological effect has to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Radical: The species which has one or more unpaired electron.  These unpaired electrons readily makes free radical molecule which are highly unstable and chemically reactive. Free radical are denoted as R.

There are three kind of radical

  • Reactive Oxygen species
  • Reactive nitrogen species
  • Non-radical

Radical are very reactive because they are unstable.  The readily react with two molecule to forms stable molecule.

You are trying to decide if there is a single reagent you can add that will make the following synthesis possible without any other major side products: xi 1. ☑ 2. H₂O хе i Draw the missing reagent X you think will make this synthesis work in the drawing area below. If there is no reagent that will make your desired product in good yield or without complications, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. There is no reagent that will make this synthesis work without complications. : ☐ S ☐
Predict the major products of this organic reaction: H OH 1. LiAlH4 2. H₂O ? Note: be sure you use dash and wedge bonds when necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. G C टे
For each reaction below, decide if the first stable organic product that forms in solution will create a new C-C bond, and check the appropriate box. Next, for each reaction to which you answered "Yes" to in the table, draw this product in the drawing area below. Note for advanced students: for this problem, don't worry if you think this product will continue to react under the current conditions - just focus on the first stable product you expect to form in solution. NH2 CI MgCl ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No MgBr ? Will the first product that forms in this reaction create a new CC bond? Yes No G टे
