Question

Ming Chen (graduate student) and m Roush (famous organic chemist) tly first total synthesis of Triandomycin C an interesting compound that has anti-HIV properties published the R.Total formation of Lett. 2012, 14, 426-4281. One of the early steps in the synthesis is the ester 13 by addition of the alcohol 11 to the acid chloride 12 (see below). The procedure that Chen and Roush report for synthesizing 13 is shown below (slightly modified). Please use this procedure to answer the following questions. To receive full credit for correct answers, be sure to show your work in conventional dimensional analysis format (also called factor-label method).

Suppose you are a professional pharmaceutical chemist, and your supervisor asks you to synthesize 13 by following Roush's procedure by starting with 100 gof11. Complete the table below that would likely be in your laboratory notebook. Please show your work on the back of this page being sure to use dimensional analysis. ELN 101.19 (5 Polats per answer)

Explanation / Answer

1. if 100 g of alcohol (mwt 368.58) find the table, for this calculation 11 is fixed 100 g as per mentioned in question, find the table for answers

acid chloride 12 is based on above procedure ,

5 mmol required 7.5 mmol

so 1.5 times.

here for 100 g is 0.2713 moles, so 0.2713*1.5 =0.406 moles

so 0.406*104.53 (molecular weight) =42.43 g.

same as Et3N , 5 mmol required 12.5 mmol , so 12.5/5 = 2.5 eq.

here for 100g

=0.2713*2.5=0.678 .

=0.678*101.19

=68.60 g

for conversion of grams to mls

68.60/0.726

=94.49 ml.

same as solvent 5 mmol required 50 ml, 50/5 = 10 times

so 0.2713*10=2.713 lit

for mls conversion 2.713*1000 =2713 ml

2. alcohol 11 2.84 g instead of 1.84 g

so based on 2.84 g of alcohol 11 ,

theoretical yield = ?

as based on chemistry 13 synthesis,combine two molecules 11 amd 12 release one hydrochloride molecules(this neutrlaise with Et3N form salt).

so 368.58+104.53=473.11

=473.11-36.5 (HCl)

=436.61 .product molecular wt.

now 2.84/368.58*436.61

=3.364 g is theoretical yield.

now percent of yield=

obtained yield/theoretical yield

so 1.56/3.364*100

=46.37%

percent of yield =46.37.

3. for recryztalisation , select suitable solvent.

to selection of suitable solvent, check the solubility in different solvents.

the solvent should be less soluble at room temperature or 0-5°C temperature, complete or clearly soluble at reflux or boiling temperature. so this principle for recrystalization(other part which solvent taking impurities).

first solubilty will be check with non-polar solvents like hexane, pentane, diethylether, toluene solvents

other slight polar MDC, ethylacetate, IPA.

or else can try mixture of solvents based on solubility.
