Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The resonance of αanomer and the resonance of βanomer is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Spectroscopy method is used to identify the structure of the molecule. It is based on the interactions between matter and electromagnetic radiations. Proton NMR spectroscopy identifies the number of hydrogen atoms present in a molecule and the nature of the functional group. The value of chemical peaks depends upon the chemical environment.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The amount of each anomer of Dglucopyranose in the mixture is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The anomers are cyclic monosaccharides, which differ in configuration at one stereogenic center. These carbon atoms are called the anomeric center. For example αDglucopyranose and βDglucopyranose are anomers of glucose.

OEt Br NaOEt H Ph OEt (1) NaOH(aq) (2) Acidify HO K Ph (iii) In the subsequent step adduct J is converted into carboxylic acid K under the conditions given. Explain this decarboxylation process that occurs when heating using curly arrow mechanisms.
Which of the following bases is strong enough to deprotonate N,Ndimethylacetamide [CH3CON(CH3)2, pKa = 30], so that equilibrium favors the products: (a) NaNH2; (b) NaOH?
(−)-Hyoscyamine, an optically active drug used to treat gastrointestinal disorders, is isolated from Atropa belladonna, the deadly nightshade plant, by a basic aqueous extraction procedure. If too much base is used during isolation, optically inactive material is isolated. (a) Explain this result by drawing a stepwise mechanism. (b) Explain why littorine, an isomer isolated from the tailflower plant in Australia, can be obtained optically pure regardless of the amount of base used during isolation.
