Draw skeletal structures for the compounds in Problem 3, including any cis-trans isomers.
Assign relative priorities to each set of substituents:
a. -CH2CH2CH3 -CH(CH3)2 -CH=CH2 -CH3
b. -CH2NH2 -NH2 -OH -CH2OH
c. -C(=O)CH3 -CH=CH2 -Cl -C鈮
Tamoxifen slows the growth of some breast tumors by binding to estrogen receptors. Is tamoxifen an Eor a Zisomer?
A student decided that the configuration of the asymmetric centers in a sugar such as d-glucose could be determined rapidly by simply assigning the Rconfiguration to an asymmetric center with an OH group on the right and the Sconfiguration to an asymmetric center with an OH group on the left. Is
he correct? (We will see in Chapter 20 that the 鈥渄鈥 in d-glucose means that the OH group on the bottommost asymmetric center is on the right.)

Stereoisomers with two asymmetric centres are called ___ if the configuration of both asymmetric centers in one stereoisomer is the opposite of the configuration of the asymmetric centers in the other stereoisomer.
b. Stereoisomers with two asymmetric centers are called ___ if the configuration of both asymmetric centers in one stereoisomer is the same as the configuration of the asymmetric centers in the other stereoisomer.
c. Stereoisomers with two asymmetric centers are called ___ if one of the asymmetric centers has the same configuration in both stereoisomers and the other asymmetric center has the opposite configuration in the two stereoisomers.
