Concept introduction:
Any organic molecule can be named by using certain rules given by IUPAC (International Union for Pure and applied chemistry).IUPAC name consists of three parts, namely Prefix, suffix and root word.
Prefix- Represents the substituent present in the molecule and its position in the root name.
Suffix- Denotes the presence of
Root word - Represents the longest continuous carbon skeleton of the organic molecule.
A chiral carbon is the carbon atom which is substituted to four different groups. Due to presence of chiral carbon a molecule become chiral and it gives optical isomers also that is
All the substituents are different hence it is a chiral carbon and so molecule.

- Hydroxyprogesterone Draw the structure and write the IUPAC name of a drug assigned to you (use Chemsketch software). Mention its two most important medicinal uses. Identify and name all the functional groups present in the molecule. Label Chiral carbon atoms, if any.arrow_forwardOrganic Chemistry HW: CANNOT BE HAND DRAWN 2,6-dimethyloct-2-ene Provide a detailed typed explanation of Stereoisomers show the expanded structure of your molecule. Calculate the maximum number of possible stereoisomers of your molecule using the following formula: Maximum number of possible stereoisomers = 2n (where n= the number of chiral carbons in your molecule). This calculation does not include E- or Z- isomers for any compounds containing double bonds Type or using a computer program "draw" the possible stereoisomers of the molecule. Note that E-, Z- isomers of each stereoisomer are also possible and would not be accounted for by the formula above; draw any E- or Z- isomers.arrow_forwardDrawing optical isomers 1. Locate the chiral centre- look for the carbon atom with four different groups attached. 2. Draw one enantiomer in a tetrahedral shape -chlo 1. Loca - put the chiral carbon atom at the centre and the four different groups in a tetrahedral shape around it. Don't try to draw the full structure of each group -it gets confusing, Just use the structural formulas. 3. Draw the mirror image of the enantiomer-put in a mirror line next to the enantiomer and then draw the mirror image of the enantiomer on the other side of it. Example Draw the two enantiomers of 2-hydroxybutanoic acid. The structure of 2-butanoic acid is shown below. 1. Locate the chiral centre 2. Draw one 3.
