(The molecule is drawn with C1 at the top and C5 at the bottom.)arrow_forwardDraw a Fischer projection of (2R,3S)-3-bromo-2-butanolarrow_forward
- Assign R or S configuration to each chirality center in the following molecules. First assign the configuration of the chirality center closest to the top of the Fischer projection. Then give the configuration of the other chirality center. CH₂OH -OH CH3CH₂ # H- -OCH3 CO₂H 1st structure: Top chirality center 2nd structure: Top chirality center H3C- H3C- OH -OH -H Other chirality center: ✓. Other chirality center: Varrow_forward8. Assign each chiral carbon as R or S in compound-A. Draw the mirror image of compound-A and assign configuration to each chiral carbon. (note that the dotted line represents the mirror). H₂N S OH Compound A CH3 CH3 mirror CH3 CH 3 Mmok NHZarrow_forward4. Determine if each Fischer projection is chiral or achiral. If chiral, identify it as the d or l stereoisomer and draw the mirror image. a. CH₂OH HO- ti CH3 H b. CH ₂ 0+H Н CH3 HO ₂-CH3arrow_forward
