  • Ganic Compounds
    6-1 SECTION 6 NOMENCLATURE AND STRUCTURE OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS Many organic compounds have common names which have arisen historically, or have been given to them when the compound has been isolated from a natural product or first synthesised. As there are so many organic compounds chemists have developed rules for naming a compound systematically, so that it structure can be deduced from its name. This section introduces this systematic nomenclature, and the ways the structure of organic compounds can be depicted more simply than by full Lewis structures. The language is based on Latin, Greek and German in addition to English, so a classical education is beneficial for chemists! Greek and Latin prefixes play an important role in nomenclature: Greek Latin ½ hemi semi 1 mono uni 1½ sesqui 2 di bi 3 tri ter 4 tetra quadri 5 penta quinque 6 hexa sexi 7 hepta septi 8 octa octo 9 ennea nona 10 deca deci Organic compounds: Compounds containing the element carbon [e.g. methane, butanol]. (CO, CO2 and carbonates are classified as inorganic.) See page 1-4. Special characteristics of many organic compounds are chains or rings of carbon atoms bonded together, which provides the basis for naming, and the presence of many carbon- hydrogen bonds. The valency of carbon in organic compounds is 4. Hydrocarbons: Compounds containing only the elements C and H. Straight chain hydrocarbons are named according to the number of carbon atoms: CH4, methane; C2H6 or H3C-CH3, ethane; C3H8 or H3C-CH2-CH3, propane; C4H10 or H3C-CH2- CH2-CH3, butane; C5H12 or CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3, pentane; C6H14 or CH3(CH2)4CH3, hexane; C7H16, heptane; C8H18, octane; C9H20, nonane; C10H22, CH3(CH2)8CH3, decane.

University of Pittsburgh, 2006 Abstract The ability of the catalytic, asymmetric acyl halide-aldehyde cyclocondensation (AAC) reaction to produce stereoenriched β-lactone products has found extensive utility in natural product synthesis. The asymmetric Al(III)-catalyzed AAC-SN2’ ring opening sequence was exploited in synthetic efforts towards the enantioselective total synthesis of the aspidospermane alkaloid (−)- rhazinilam (1). The synthetic sequence features an enantioselective cyclization of a tethered pyrrole moiety onto an optically-active allene to set the quaternary carbon stereocenter while concomitantly forming rhazinilam’s tetrahydroindolizine core. In addition, attempts at forming the requisite biaryl bond via a Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction are also discussed. N O N O R · Et Et N H O 18 CO2H Et (−)-Rhazinilam (1) Recently, it was found that the Cinchona alkaloids quinine and quinidine can catalyze the AAC reaction to produce disubstituted β-lactones in high yield and in essentially enantiomerically and diastereomerically pure form.

  • Studies Toward the Total Synthesis of (+)-Pyrenolide D Honors Research
    Studies toward the Total Synthesis of (+)-Pyrenolide D Honors Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with honors research distinction in Chemistry in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Adam Doane The Ohio State University 24 May 2012 Project Advisor: Dr. Christopher Callam, Department of Chemistry i Abstract Spiro lactones have had an extensive impact in both medicinal and organismal biology. Since their discovery, various methods for preparing spiro lactones have been studied and investigated. One of these spiro lactones, pyrenolide D, which is one of the four metabolites, A- D, was isolated from Pyrenophora teres by Nukina and Hirota in 1992 and shows cytotoxicity towards HL-60 cells at IC50 4 µg/ mL. The structural determination, via spectroscopic methods, reported that unlike pyrenolides A-C, pyrenolide D contained a rare, highly oxygenated tricyclic spiro-γ-lactone structure and did not contain the macrocyclic lactone seen in the other pyrenolides. The purpose of this project is the determination of a cost effective and efficient synthesis of pyrenolide D from the naturally occurring sugar, D-xylose. Herein we report studies towards the total synthesis of pyrenolide D. i Acknowledgments I would like to thank my research advisor, Dr. Christopher Callam for his constant help, encouragement, and inspiration throughout the past 3 years. He has sacrificed an immeasurable number of hours answering questions and providing support for the duration of this project. I would also like to thank The Ohio State University Department of Chemistry for financial support as well as Chemical Abstracts Service, the William Marshall MacNevin Memorial foundation, and Mr.

    Chem 263 Oct. 5, 2010 Nomenclature of substituted benzene rings When you have two substituents on a benzene ring, ortho, meta, and para are used to tell where the second substitution is relative to the first one. X ortho ortho meta meta para Ortho refers to 1,2-substitution and is abbreviated o- Meta refers to 1,3-substitution and is abbreviated m- Para refers to 1,4-substitution and is abbreviated p- Examples: O OH OH C p-aminophenol (more correct, OH has priority) or p-methoxybenzoic acid p-hydroxyaniline (this is an ether group, NH2 OCH3 specifically methoxy) p-Aminophenol: The amine and hydroxyl group are in the 1 and 4 positions, so they are para to each other. The parent structure in this molecule can be either aniline or phenol. For this course, it doesn’t matter which parent structure you pick in the nomenclature with these substituents. Usually when naming the substituents, the atomic number takes priority, but there are many exceptions for historical reasons. Name: m-bromophenol or 3-bromophenol In this compound, the –OH (hydroxy) and –Br are in the 1 and 3 positions, so they are meta (or abbreviated m) to each other. The parent structure is phenol (phenol is a benzene with a hydroxyl group directly attached, not to be confused with phenyl which means just a benzene ring as a substituent), so we call this meta-bromophenol.
