3.(09) Compound (VII) was required for a diterpene synthesis (JACS, 103 222(1981)). (VII) can be
synthesized from (VI) but only if a "protection-deprotection" procedure, involving a temporary
"mask", is incorporated into the sequence of reactions from (VI) to (VII). Outline the reactions
required, in order, for a successful transformation of (VI) into (VII), including a key
intermediate's structure. NOTE: Count Carbons, and Structural Chances!

4. (06) When cyclopentanthione is allowed to react with CH3ONH2 in the presence of a trace of
acid catalyst (H+), it forms (IX) via the intermediate (VIII), both shown below. Outline a

5.(10) Although we have seen routes (I) can think of two good ones for overall 100% inversion,
one of one reaction and one of two reactions) for converting a chiral alcohol into its inverted
alkyl chloride, there is NO one reaction that will convert a chiral alcohol into its alkyl chloride
with "retained" configuration. Thus, it is necessary to use several reaction steps, each of 100%
inversion or 100% retention of configuration, in order to convert (X) into (XI).
Outlines below a series of such reactions by which X can be converted into XI with overall HIGH
retention of configuration. In order to receive proper credit, draw the structures of any
intermediate compounds, of course with their configuration clearly shown.
Hint: Ask yourself, how many inversions must I have to have overall retention of configuration!

a) How many chiral (stereocenter) carbons does (XII) have? (Label each with a Star). Thus, how
many stereoisomers are possible because of chiral centers (stereocenters)?
b) How many bonds exhibiting both restricted rotation and geometric isomerism are in (XII)?
(XII) Thus, how many geometric isomers are possible because of restricted rotation?
c) What is the maximum number of stereoisomers possible due to both chirality and restricted
rotation?
(d) Below (XII), draw a stereoisomer that is related to (XII) as a diasteriomer.

7.(16) a) When CH3-S-Cl was allowed to react with (XIII), two products were obtained, (XIV) and
(XV). Diagram a mechanism that accounts for the formation of (XIV) or (XV) and follow with a
brief discussion as to why only two of the maximum four possible stereoisomers are found in
the product mixture. Note: How is the S-Cl bond polarized?

the stereoisomer chosen, including priorities of substituent’s at each chiral center, Note: Please
clearly label as to which chiral center the R/S designation given applies.
8.(14) a) To the right of XVI, draw the two chair conformations of it, one of many halogenated

terpenes in red algae’s. For (b) it is essential that substituent’s be clearly shown as to whether
they are axial or equatorial.

1) the most likely substitution product:
2) the most likely elimination product:
9.(08) Consider again (XIII) in other reactions. Draw the structure of the organic product formed
in each reaction below, including stereochemistry if that appears important. In (a), you ought to
include the structure of a reaction intermediate after the first step.

staggered conformations about the bond labeled with an arrow; the least stable eclipsed
conformation about the bond labeled with an arrow:

b) In which conformation in (a) is the dihedral angle of the OH and OR groups = 180 decrees?
c) The staggered conformations in which the -OR and -OH are gauche are each stabilized by
internal (intramolecular) hydrogen bonding. For either such conformation, explain such
bonding in terms of dipole and bond symbols and 5-10 words.
d) Which of the two conformations mentioned in (c) is the more stable? Briefly, what is the
basis of your answer?
