Chapter 19, Problem 54E

One of the skin-irritating components of poison oak is tetrahvdrourushiol:

Chapter 19, Problem 54E, One of the skin-irritating components of poison oak is tetrahvdrourushiol: The long, nonpolar

The long, nonpolar hydrocarbon tail embeds itself in a person's oily skin, where the molecule initiates an allergic response. Scratching the itch spreads tetrahvdrourushiol molecules over a greater surface area, causing the zone of irritation to grow. Is this compound an alcohol or a phenol? Defend your answer.

Indicate the relationship between the two structures in the pair. Are they chair conformations of the same molecule? If so, are they conformational diastereomers, conformational enantiomers, or identical? If they are not conformations of the same molecule, what is their stereochemical relationship? CH3 CH3 CH3 H3C CH3 H3C CH3 They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational diastereomers. They are chair conformations of the same molecule, and they are conformational enantiomers. They are identical conformations of the same molecule. They are different molecules, and they are diastereomers. They are different molecules, and they are enantiomers. O000
