Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The name of the given amine has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Depending on the number of carbon side chain of the nitrogen, different types of amines can form.
Primary amines can be named in the IUPAC system in several ways,
For simple amines the suffix – amine is added to the name of the alkyl substituent.
The suffix-amine can be used in place of the final –e in the name of the parent compound.
For a secondary amine an N prefixes the compound giving the shorter carbon chain and its chain prefix name.
For a tertiary amine an N, N prefixes the compound giving the two shorter carbon chains and their side chain prefix names.
(b)
Interpretation: The name of the given amine has to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Amines are the derivatives of ammonia
Depending on the number of carbon side chain of the nitrogen, different types of amines can form.

For a secondary amine an N prefixes the compound giving the shorter carbon chain and its chain prefix name.
For a tertiary amine an N, N prefixes the compound giving the two shorter carbon chains and their side chain prefix names.

- This is remdesivir, one of the drugs being used in the treatment of COVID-19. Label the indicated carbons as R, S, or neither. b); NH2 HO OHarrow_forwardCarvone exists as a pair of enantiomers. (R)-(-)-carvone smells like spearment, whereas (S)-(+)-carvone smells like caraway. Why do these enantiomers have different smells (i.e., different biological activity) ?arrow_forwarda) Write out the reaction that converts succinate to fumarate with FAD using curved arrow symbolism. (b) Classify the reaction as an oxidation, reduction, or decarboxylation.arrow_forward
- In 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_forwardName the enantiomer of D-glucose.arrow_forwardWhat is deoxyribonucleic acid ?arrow_forward
