Step by step solution

01

Plane of symmetry

An imaginary plane that bisects a molecule dividing it into two equal/identical halves is termed plane of symmetry.

02

Plane of symmetry and chirality

Molecules that possess a mirror plane or plane of symmetry are termed achiral and the ones that do not possess a plane of symmetry are termed chiral.

03

Plane of symmetry of the given molecules

The plane of symmetry of the given molecules are as follows:

a.

Plane of symmetry in compound a

Label the two stereogenic centers in each compound and draw all possible stereoisomers.

a.

b.

Like carvone, the two enantiomers of celery ketone smell differently. The R enantiomer smells like celery leaves, whereas the S enantiomer smells like licorice. Draw each enantiomer and assign its odor.

Draw both enantiomers of clopidogrel (trade name Plavix), a drug given to prevent the formation of blood clots in persons who have a history of stroke or coronary artery disease. Plavix is sold as a single enantiomer with the S configuration. Which enantiomer is Plavix?

a) Locate the stereogenic centers in the ball-and-stick model of ezetimibe (trade name Zetia), a cholesterol-lowering drug. (b) Label each stereogenic center as R or S.

Artemisinin and mefloquine are widely used antimalarial drugs. A ball-and-stick model of artemisinin appears on the cover of this text.

  1. Locate the stereogenic centers in both drugs.
  2. Label each stereogenic center in mefloquine as R or S.
  3. What is the maximum number of stereoisomers possible for artemisinin?
  4. How are the N atoms in mefloquine hybridized?
  5. Can two molecules of artemisinin intermolecularly hydrogen bond to each other?
  6. What product is formed when mefloquine is treated with HCl?
