1. (a) There are two main types of adrenergic receptors: the a- and B-adrenoceptors. Noradrenaline shows slight selectivity for the a-adrenoceptor, whereas isoprenaline shows selectivity for the B-adrenoceptor. Adrenaline shows no selectivity and binds equally well to both the a- and B-adrenoceptors. Suggest an explanation for these differences in selectivity. OH OH OH Но. NH2 HO. НО. НО Но Но Noradrenaline Isoprenaline Adrenaline (b) Isoprenaline undergoes metabolism to give the inactive metabolite shown below. Suggest why this metabolite does not bind to the B-adrenoceptor.

What aldehyde or ketone and nitrogen component are needed to synthesize N-ethylcyclohexanamine by a reductive amination reaction?
Paroxetine (Paxil) is an antidepressant that is a member of a family of drugs known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIS). This family of drugs also includes fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft). SSRIS work by inhibiting the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the synapses of the central nervous system follow- ing release of serotonin during excitation of individual nerve cells. Between firings, the serotonin is taken back up by a nerve cell in preparation for firing again. Inhibition of reuptake has the effect of increasing the time serotonin molecules remain in the syn- apses following excitation, leading to a therapeutic effect. In one synthesis of parox- etine, the following reagents are used. Draw the structures of synthetic intermediates A and B. F НО SOCI, A B HO Pyridine
