(b)
Interpretation:The indicated compound should be named.
Concept introduction:In accordance with IUPAC systematic nomenclature od alcohols can be derived from the parent alkane with “e” dropped and replaced by “ol” suffix.
As per IUPAC recommendations, longest chain found in a continuous manner in a branched molecule is chosen as parent chain. The longest chain must contain the alcohol functional group.
The chain carbons are numbered so as to provide least numeral position towards the end in vicinity to
For alkanes side chains the positions of side chains or alkyl substituents are indicated by lowest numeral places before prefix.

For alkanes side chains the positions of side chains or alkyl substituents are indicated by lowest numeral places before prefix.
In order to assign absolute configuration of R and S, Cahn − Ingold − Prelog rules are used and the first step is to assign the priority order on the basis of
The Fischer projection is written along with the priorities assigned and groups are interchanged between adjacent places so as to obtain lowest priority group at the bottom or lowest priority.
If the groups now are arranged are read from highest towards least in clockwise fashion the R is assigned to the stereocenter, if the rotation is anticlockwise the S is assigned at the configuration.

In order to assign absolute configuration of R and S, Cahn − Ingold − Prelog rules are used and the first step is to assign the priority order on the basis of atomic number. The one with highest atomic number gest highest priority and is designated as a and so on.
The Fischer projection is written along with the priorities assigned and groups are interchanged between adjacent places so as to obtain lowest priority group at the bottom or lowest priority.
If the groups now are arranged are read from highest towards least in clockwise fashion the R is assigned to the stereocenter, if the rotation is anticlockwise the S is assigned at the configuration.

- Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution: What is the product of the reaction? What is the name of the intermediate complex? *See imagearrow_forwardPredict the final product. If 2 products are made, list which should be “major” and “minor” *see attachedarrow_forwardNucleophilic Aromatic Substitution: What is the product of the reaction? *see imagearrow_forward
- Show the correct sequence to connect the reagent to product. * see imagearrow_forwardThe answer here says that F and K have a singlet and a doublet. The singlet and doublet are referring to the H's 1 carbon away from the carbon attached to the OH. Why don't the H's two carbons away, the ones on the cyclohexane ring, cause more peaks on the signal?arrow_forwardDraw the Birch Reduction for this aromatic compound and include electron withdrawing groups and electron donating groups. *See attachedarrow_forward
