(a)
Interpretation: The stereogenic center in the given molecule must be assigned R or S configuration.
Concept introduction: Stereogenic centres are given R and S configuration by sequence rule that is by assigning 1 to 4 priorities to the substituents attached at the chiral center on the basis of their
(b)
Interpretation: The stereogenic center in the given molecule must be assigned R or S configuration.
Concept introduction: Stereogenic centres are given R and S configuration by sequence rule that is by assigning 1 to 4 priorities to the substituents attached at the chiral center on the basis of their atomic number higher the atomic number higher is the priority followed by rotating the molecule from the side of highest priority group to that of the lowest priority. If the molecule rotates in clockwise direction then it is assigned R configuration while if it rotates in anticlockwise direction then it is assigned S configuration. If the first priority atom of the substituent groups is same then the priority of second atom is checked and so on.

- Label the stereogenic center(s) in each drug as R or S. L-Dopa is used to treat Parkinson's disease (Chapter 1). Ketamine is an anesthetic. Enalapril belongs to a class of drugs called ACE inhibitors, which are used to lower blood pressure. CH3 NHẠC CH,CH,Oz a.

All carbons except one have an OH group. The remaining carbon has a double bond to oxygen, making it an aldehyde or ketone. For example, the Fisher projection of glucose looks like this: C H- H- -ОН НО -ОН -HO- CH2OH Because a simple sugar has both a carbonyl carbon and built-in nucleophiles, a reaction can occur within the molecule itself to create the hemi-acetal form of the sugar. Propose a mechanism for this reaction when it occurs in an aqueous solution. C -- CH2OH он в CH2OH HO- H H НО H. ОН Н and ОН Н HO- он Он а OH H H- ОН OH H ОН ČH2OHarrow_forward
