- DHA is a fatty acid derived from fish oil and an abundant fatty acid in vertebrate brains. Hydrogenation of DHA forms docosanoic acid [CH3(CH2)20CO2H], and ozonolysis forms CH3CH2CHO, CH2(CHO)2 (five equivalents), and HCOCH2CH2CO2H. What is the structure of DHA if all double bonds have the Z configuration?arrow_forwardCymbalta (shown below) is an antidepressant. How many asymmetric centers are present in this structure?

- An example of a conjugated system is two positively charged carbons separated by one single bond one negatively charged carbon adjacent to a л bond two negatively charged carbons separated by one single bond one positively charged carbon adjacent to a σ bondarrow_forwardОН HO "ОН Н ОН OH O,. ОН NH2 This is the molecule commonly known as Doxorubicin. Doxorubicin is used in chemotherapy to inhibit uncontrolled cell growth, a hallmark of cancerous cells. Doxorubicin specifically inhibits an enzyme called topoisomerase which helps remove supercoils in DNA as DNA is replicated during cell growth and division (mitosis). the following key to label the different Indicate the functional groups a part of Doxorubicin usi parts of the molecule (note not all functional groups listed may be a part of Doxorubicin): Carboxylic Acid label with a C Ketone label with a K Alcohol label with an A Ketal label with a T Aldehyde label with an H Ester label with an R Acetal label with an L Amine label with an M Amide label with a D Phenol label with a P Aromatic label with a B Ether label with an Earrow_forwardClassifying a carbon atom by the number of carbons to which it is bonded can also be done in more-complex molecules that contain heteroatoms.

- What kind of orbital overlap forms the delocalized p system in a benzene ring? S sp sp3arrow_forwardWhat is the major difference between an antiaromatic and aromatic compound? Antiaromatic compounds have at least one sp³ hybridized atom in the ring. Antiaromatic compounds are not conjugated. Only aromatic compounds have 4n+ 2 pi electrons. The structure must be cyclic for aromatic but not antiaromatic compounds. Aromatic, not Antiaromatic compounds, are planar.arrow_forwardWhy is ethanal incapable of forming a hydrogen bond with another ethanal molecule despite exhibiting a bond dipole in the C = O bond? The carbon atom does not form a highly polar bond with hydrogen. O The oxygen atom is sp2 hybridized with almost 67% p character. The oxygen atom is partially reactive due to the strong bond dipole. Oxygen exhibits resonance with carbon leading to bond stability.arrow_forward
