In the mid-1930s a substance was isolated from a fungus that is a parasite of ryes and other grasses. This alkaloid, lysergic acid, has been of great interest to chemists because of its strange, dramatic action on the human mind. Many derivatives of lysergic acid are known, some with medicinal applications. Perhaps the best known derivative of lysergic acid is the potent hallucinogen lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD): మగవా జి N-H LSD (CH25N;O) Like other alkaloids, LSD is a weak base, with Kp = 7.6 × 107. What is the pH of a 0.94 M solution of LSD? pH =
Enanthotoxin is an extremely poisonous organic compound found in hemlock water drop- wart, which is reputed to be the most poisonous plant in England. It is believed that no British plant has been responsible for more fatal accidents. The most poisonous part of the plant is the roots, which resemble small white carrots, giving the plant the name"five finger death."Also poisonous are its leaves, which look like parsley. Enanthotoxin is thought to interfere with the Nat current in nerve cells, which leads to convulsions and death. он How many stereoisomers are possible for enanthotoxin?
When trichloroacetaldehyde is dissolved in water, almost all of it is converted to the hydrate. Chloral hydrate, the product of the reaction, is a sedative that can be lethal. A cocktail laced with it is known—in detective novels,at least—as a “Mickey Finn.” Explain why an aqueous solution of trichloroacetaldehyde is almost all hydrate.

Paroxetine (Paxil) is an antidepressant that is a member of a family of drugs known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIS). This family of drugs also includes fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft). SSRIS work by inhibiting the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the synapses of the central nervous system follow- ing release of serotonin during excitation of individual nerve cells. Between firings, the serotonin is taken back up by a nerve cell in preparation for firing again. Inhibition of reuptake has the effect of increasing the time serotonin molecules remain in the syn- apses following excitation, leading to a therapeutic effect. In one synthesis of parox- etine, the following reagents are used. Draw the structures of synthetic intermediates A and B. F НО SOCI, A B HO Pyridine
