- A sulfonium ion (R3S+) is a stereogenic center if three different alkyl groups are bonded to sulfur because sulfur is surrounded by four different groups, including its lone pair. In assigning an R or S) is a stereogenic center if three different alkyl groups are bonded to sulfur because sulfur is surrounded by four different groups, including its lone pair. In assigning an designation to sulfur, the lone pair is always assigned the lowest priority (4). SAM, S -adenosylmethionine, is a biologically active sulfonium ion that we will learn about in Section 7.16. Locate all the stereogenic centers in SAM, and assign an R,S designation to each center.arrow_forwardLabel a curve of potential energy vs. dihedral angle for the Newman conformations of 2,3-dimethylbutane. In each case, the C-2 to C-3 bond rotates in the clockwise direction. Step 1: Translate line-bond notation to the Newman projection. Step 2: Identify Newman projections for each rotation. HI ||| H Step 3: Identify the relative stability of each Newman projection. Step 4: Construct the energy diagram. Step 2: Identify the Newman projections for each rotation (continued). As the back carbon rotates, the Newman projections alternate from staggered to eclipsed and back again. Fill in the remaining conformations for each conformation labeled with the angle of internal rotation from the starting Newman projection.

Draw the ring flip for compound A and label compound B. Calculate and compare the energies of the two conformers (A and B respectively), knowing that a methyl-methyl gauche interaction is 3.8 kJ/mol, the H-CH3 diaxial interaction is 3.75 kJ/mol and the CH3 - CH3 diaxial interaction is 15 kJ/mol. Which isomer is more stable? 4 H3C 5 CH3 A 6 2 CH3 CH3 Barrow_forward
- Draw all six ketone constitutional isomers of the formula C6H12O Follow the instructions and draw the five different possible arrangements of six carbon units. For parts A-C, draw only the six carbon atoms and Do Not draw the ketone. A:draw the structure containing six carbons in the longest parent chain. B: draw the two structures containing five carbons in the longest parent chain. C: Draw the two structures containing four carbons in the longest parent chain. D: Using the five structures from parts A,B,&C as a guide, draw the skeletal structures of the six constitutional isomers of C6H12O that are ketones.arrow_forwardHow many tetrahedral stereogenic centers does PGF2α contain? Draw its enantiomer. How many of its double bonds can exhibit cis-trans isomerism? Considering both its double bonds and its tetrahedral stereogenic centers, how many stereoisomers are possible for PGFα?arrow_forward.

Clearly show stereochemistry if stereoisomers are possible. Step 1: Start by drawing all the isomers with double bonds. • Consider constitutional isomers, then stereoisomers. Step 2: Draw all isomers containing a ring. • Consider constitutional isomers, then stereoisomers. Consider the constitutional isomers of C5H₁0 that contain a 3-carbon ring.
