Resorcinol is added with NaOH. The product is then reacted with Benzene Diazonium Chloride to form an azo dye compound. What is the color of the dye? Write the equation of the two reactions.
Prostaglandins are a class of eicosanoids, fatty acid derivatives with a variety of extremely potent actions on vertebrate tissues.
They are responsible for producing fever and inflammation and its associated pain. Prostaglandins are derived from the 20-
carbon fatty acid arachidonic acid in a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase. This enzyme, a
cyclooxygenase, uses oxygen to convert arachidonic acid to PGG2, the immediate precursor of many different prostaglandins.

Digitalis is a preparation made from the dried seeds and leaves of the purple foxglove,
Digitalis purpurea, a plant native to southern and central Europe and cultivated in the United
States. The preparation is a mixture of several active components, including digitalin. Digi-
talis is used in medicine to increase the force of myocardial contraction and as a conduction
depressant to decrease heart rate (the heart pumps more forcefully but less often).
