Interpretation: The correct sterochemical descriptor for the
Concept introduction:
Alkenes are one of the important types of hydrocarbon which have at least one carbon-carbon double bond (
E-Z designators are used as like cis-trans terminology for non-similar groups attached alkenes.
In E-Z designations, the groups attached to vinylic positions are checked by their priority on the basis of higher molecular weight. If the higher priority groups are on the same sides, then the configuration is designated as Z. If the higher priority groups are on the opposite sides, then the configuration is designated as E.
Permethrin and bifenthrin are the synthetic pyretherenoids now in common use in household and agricultural products.
Their structure is given below,

- Briefly indicate, with examples, the use of inorganic heterocycles in the synthesis of the corresponding polymers.arrow_forward1) Show how to use solid phase techniques to synthesize Ala-Val-Phe. You may use any amino acids (including protected amino acids) and any inorganic reagents that you wish in carrying out your synthesis. You don't need to show any mechanisms for this synthesis. You can maximize your chances of partial credit by showing key intermediates. (12 points)arrow_forward5) AZT is a drug that is used to treat HIV/AIDS. When cells take up AZT, they convert it to AZT- triphosphate. AZT-triphosphate prevents the virus from synthesizing new DNA from its RNA code. a. Write a 1-2 sentence explanation describing how AZT-triphosphate prevents DNA synthesis. (4 points) HO NH 'N' O © © N=N=N AZT b.
