- Draw the complete structural formula of arachidonic acid (Table 23.1) in a way that shows the cis stereochemistry of its four double bonds.arrow_forwardGenAlex Medical, a little-known division of a major Swiss pharmaceutical firm, recently developed a new synthetic steroid S. Their patent application describes S as "made from a steroid nucleus with hydroxyl groups at positions 3 and 7, and methyl groups at positions 4 and 12." In the drawing space below, draw the chemical structure of S. If more than one structure is possible, you can draw any of them. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. ח' G c Earrow_forwardIDENTIFY THE FUNCTIONAL GROUP PRESENT IN THESE COMPOUNDS. A = ? B = ? C = ?arrow_forward
- Give one specific sample structure (Fischer Projection or Haworth) of the following carbohydrate derivatives: - Amino-sugararrow_forwardProstaglandins are a naturally occurring class of compounds in our bodies that affect blood pressure, and cause inflammation and other physiological responses. The synthesis of prostaglandins in our bodies starts with arachidonic acid (see figure below), a long, unsaturated hydrocarbon containing four C=C double bonds and an acid functional group (–COOH). The stereoisomer with all cis double bonds is shown. Draw the stereoisomer with all trans double bonds. Draw the Lewis structures with the formal charges minimized. Do not include formal charges or electron pairs. You do not need to draw hydrogen atoms that are connected to carbon atoms.arrow_forwardStructure A and B are two amino acids, which eventually form a dimer called A-B. Identify the functional group of structure A and structure B which are forming the chemical bond in the dimer A-B. . What bi-product will be produced along with this dimer? (2)arrow_forward
- Draw the bond-line dash-wedge structure and the Fischer projection of the following For each compound, draw the Newman Projection down the C2-C3 bond in the lowest energy conformation.arrow_forwardIdentify the selected functional groups inside of the red dotted lines.arrow_forwardIn the monosaccharide derivatives known as sugar alcohols, the carbonyl oxygen is reduced to a hydroxyl group. For example, D-glyceraldehyde can be reduced to glycerol. However, this sugar alcohol is no longer designated D or L. Why?arrow_forward
- The explosive trinitrotoluene (TNT) is made by carrying out three successive nitration reactions on toluene. If these nitrations only occur in the ortho and para positions relative to the methyl group, what is the structure of TNT?arrow_forwardWhich of the following define the stereochemistry of alanine (as per the structure shown)? Note: Functional groups arranged horizontally are facing towards the front, and the functional groups arranged vertically are facing towards the back. СООН + H₂N to OS- Od- CH, OR-arrow_forwardDraw the two possible Haworth structures (both alpha and beta anomers) for the following monosaccharides and give their corresponding systematic names.
