Cinnamoylcocaine, a natural product that occurs in coca leaves, can be converted to cocaine by the following reaction sequence. Identify the structure of cinnamoylcocaine, as well as intermediates X and Y.
y-Butyrolactone (C4H6O2, GBL) is a biologically inactive compound that is converted to the biologically active recreational drug GHB (Section 19.5) by a lactonase enzyme in the body. Since y-butyrolactone is more fat soluble than GHB, it is more readily absorbed by tissues and thus produces a faster onset of physiological symptoms. y-Butyrolactone shows an absorption in its IR spectrum at 1770 cm-1 and the following 1H NMR spectral data: 2.28 (multiplet, 2 H), 2.48 (triplet, 2 H), and 4.35 (triplet, 2 H) ppm. What is the structure of y-butyrolactone?
What steps are needed to convert benzene into p-isobutylacetophenone, a synthetic intermediate used in the synthesis of the anti-infl ammatory agent ibuprofen.
