Question

Inspect the following susquiterpene molcules and provide the IUPAC name

Inspect the following sesquiterpene molecules. In each structure, sequentially number the isoprene units present (1, 2*, 3, 4...) Artemisinic alcohol C_15H_24O A biosynthetic precursor along the way to the 2015 Ohm = 4 Nobel Prize in Medicine antimalarial drug: Artemsinin Yingzhaosu A C_15H_26O_4 Naturally occurring antimalarial agent isolated Ohm = 3 from Yingzhao (Artabotrys uncinatus) Provide the correct systematic name for the following unsaturated fatty acid based on the IUPAC rules. The position and stereochemical designation of unsaturation are required.

Explanation / Answer

Artemisinic alcohol - IUPAC name.

Number of isoprene units = 2

2-[(1R,4R,4aS,8aR)-4,7-dimethyl-1,2,3,4,4a,5,6,8a-octahydronaphthalen-1-yl]prop-2-en-1-ol

Yingzhaosu A

Number of isoprene units = 1

IUPAC name : (3S,4E)5[(1S,1,5)4,8Dimethyl2,3dioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonan4yl]2methyl4pentene2,3diol

Oleic acid

IUPAC name : (9Z)-Octadec-9-enoic acid
