- The compound eutypine is an antibacterial agent isolated from the fungus Eutypa lata. This fungus results in a disease common to vineyards called eutyposis. Give a sequence of reactions that will take the following reactant and give eutypine when the other reactants used in the sequence are acetylene and acetone.arrow_forwardIdentify the reagents represented by the letters a-e in the following scheme:arrow_forwardIdentify the product in the following reaction.arrow_forward
- Fluorination of a benzene ring can be accomplished with Selectfluor, a reagent that contains a fluorine bonded to a positively charged nitrogen atom. Fluorination is a useful reaction because several common drugs, such as the cholesterol-lowering drug atorvastatin, contain a fluorine bonded to an aromatic ring. Assuming that fluorination is analogous to other examples of electrophilic aromatic substitution, draw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction.arrow_forwardSelect the correct product for the following reaction.arrow_forwardThe following conversion, carried out in the presence of Grubbs catalyst and ethylene gas, involves a cascade of metathesis reactions. Draw a reaction sequence that illustrates how the reactant is converted to the product Z, and indicate where each labeled atom in the reactant ends up in Z.arrow_forward
