Question
Chapter 5, Problem 64P
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Thestereocenter in dextromethorphan needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The stereocentre are those points where the four different groups are attached to single atom.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The enantiomers of the dextromethorphan needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: Enantiomers have the same molecular formula, but the arrangements of the groups are different from each other.
(c)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The R and S configuration of the enantiomers needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: The configuration of the atom is decided by the rotation of the atom around the chiral atom. If clockwise rotates then R configuration otherwise S configuration.

One target of this research has been nonsteroidal estrogen antagonists, compounds that interact with estrogen receptors and block the effects of both endogenous and exogenous estrogens. A feature common to one type of nonste- roidal estrogen antagonist is the presence of a 1,2-diphenylethylene with one of the benzene rings bearing a dialkylaminoethoxyl substituent.
