- Build a model (attach a photo) for any of the following compounds. What is their relationship: (i) Identical in the same conformation, (ii) conformers, (iii) enantiomers, (iv) diastereomers, (v) constitutional (structural) isomers or none of (i) – (v)? 4 1.4 он H. LOH $Bu CI $Bu Relationship:arrow_forwardFollowing is a planar hexagon representation of L-fucose, a sugar component of the determinants of the A, B, O blood group typing. For more on this system of blood typing, see Chemical Connections: A, B, AB, and O Blood Group Substances in Chapter 25. (a) Draw the alternative chair conformations of L-fucose. (b) Which of them is more stable? Explain.arrow_forwardDraw and name the seven aldehydes and ketones with the formula C5H10O. Which are chiral?arrow_forward
- When treated with CrO3, 2-tert-butylcylclohexanol undergoes oxidation reaction to yield 2-tert-butylcyclohexanone. Draw the chair conformation for both isomers. If the axial-OH is generally more reactive than its equatorial isomer, determine the isomer that reacts faster. Explain your answer in (ii)arrow_forwardAndrostenone is a constituent of male body odor. Various individuals perceive it as sweet, offensive or not at all. Using the structure and image below, determine the conformation of each of the designated substituents. (Use the carbon atom numbering from the image on the left.) Ha Ha 12 ball & stick v + labels - Нь at C1: Hydrogen at C9: Ha at C12: 1,arrow_forwardChiral compounds have a so-called asymmetric carbon atom in the molecular structure, and are opticalactive. Study the following organic molecule containing two −? − ? – groups (thiol) andwhich is a medicine against various types of metal poisoning, including against arsenic, mercury and lead: Image Based on this skeletal structure, judge whether this molecule is chiral. Give reasons for your answer.Suggest an IUPAC name for the molecule that takes into account all the given functional groups.arrow_forward
- Draw all three staggered conformations for the following compound, viewed along the C₂-C3 bond. Determine which conformation is the most stable, taking into account gauche interactions and hydrogen-bonding interactions. (J. Phys. Chem. A 2001, 105, 6991-6997) Provide a reason for your choice by identifying all of the interactions that led to your decision. H₂C OH C₂ HO CH3 Which of the following is the most stable staggered conformer? Me Me *** Conformer B Me- Me Conformer A Me Conformer C Me Conformer B because the anti OH groups avoid hydrogen bonding, which is a destabilizing effect. Conformer A because there are only two gauche interactions, and hydrogen bonding between the two OH groups is a stabilizing effect. Conformer C because there is no steric strain for Me-OH gauche interactions and hydrogen bonding between the two OH groups is a stabilizing effect. Conformer B because the large OH groups are anti to each other.arrow_forwardThe following are representations of two forms of glucose. The six-membered ring is known to exist in a chair conformation in each form. Draw clear representations of the most stable conformation of each. Are they two different conformations of the same molecule, or are they stereoisomers that cannot be interconverted by rotation about single bonds? Which substituents (if any) occupy axial sites?arrow_forwardOne of the isomers of 1,2,3,4,5,6-hexahydroxycyclohexane, called myo-Inositol, acts as a growth factor in both animals and microorganisms. Draw the most stable chair conformation of myo-Inositol (Note: account the wedge and dash projection). Draw the most stable cis-trans stereoisomer of myo-Inositol. OH HO ОН HO "OH ОНarrow_forward
- Draw a three-dimensional structure for each compound, and star all asymmetric carbon atoms. Draw the mirror image for each structure, and state whether you have drawn a pair of enantiomers or just the same molecule twice. Build molecular models of any of these examples that seem difficult to you. chlorocyclohexanearrow_forwardIndicate the relationship between the two structures in the pair. Are they chair conformations of the same molecule? If so, are they conformational diastereomers, conformational enantiomers, or identical? If they are not conformations of the same molecule, what is their stereochemical relationship? CH₂ CH₂ H₂C H₂C CH₂ Which statement is true? Ho CH₂ They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational enantiomers. They are different molecules, and they are enantiomers. They are different molecules, and they are diastereomers. They are identical conformations of the same molecule. They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational diastereomers.arrow_forwardName and draw structural formulas for the eight constitutional isomeric alcohols with molecular formula C5H12O. Classify each alcohol as primary, secondary, or tertiary. Which are chiral?arrow_forward
