Please explain properly. Q16. Ibuprofen, an example of an NSAID, is the active ingredient in several popular over-the-counter analgesics in the U.S., and it is sold in racemic form, even though only the S-enantiomer is pharmacologically active. Suggest methods that might be used to obtain or prepare ibuprofen in enantiomerically pure form, based on processes and reactions you learned. H CH3 (CH3)2CHCH₂ S-ibuprofen CO₂H

Paroxetine (Paxil) is an antidepressant that is a member of a family of drugs known as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIS). This family of drugs also includes fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft). SSRIS work by inhibiting the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the synapses of the central nervous system follow- ing release of serotonin during excitation of individual nerve cells. Between firings, the serotonin is taken back up by a nerve cell in preparation for firing again. Inhibition of reuptake has the effect of increasing the time serotonin molecules remain in the syn- apses following excitation, leading to a therapeutic effect. In one synthesis of parox- etine, the following reagents are used. Draw the structures of synthetic intermediates A and B. F НО SOCI, A B HO Pyridine

You came across an article debating the use of Prevacid® vs. Nexium®. While both drugs have the same therapeutic effect, one is sold as a racemate and the other is sold as a single enantiomer. Previous medications such as Thalidomide and Advair® have sparked a debate about the safety of drugs sold as a racemate. 4. What is a racemate?
Methadone a chiral synthetic compound used to treat opiate dependence and cancer pain is used as a racemic mixture. It is a central-acting analgesic that has a high affinity for u-opiod receptors. In humans, R (-)- methadone is about [25-50] fold more potent as an analgesic than its S (+) antipode. of ČEN H₂C CH3 Figure 1. Methadone Methadone (Figure 1) is synthesized by alkylation of diphenylacetonitrile using 1-dimethylamino-2- propylchloride in the presence of sodium amide. The resulting 4-dimethylamino-2,2-dephenylvaleronitrile (Figure 2) is reacted with the ethylmagnesiumbromide and then hydrolyzed. This resulting racemate is separated using (+)-tartaric acid, thus isolating (-)-methadone CH3 CHCH-CHI-N( H₂C CH3 CH3 -CH3 NINH: CH₂ -CH-CH₂-N CEN CH3 CH3 -C-CH-CH₂-N CEO CH3 C₂H5 Methadone Figure 2 CH3 CH3 1.C₂HsMgBr 2.

While (S)-ibuprofen is the active ingredient, commercial ibuprofen is sold as a racemic drug because (R)-ibuprofen is non-toxic. Nonetheless research is ongoing to achieve enantiopurity as (S)-ibuprofen is 3 times as effective as the mixture and with less side-effects. Currently, a research lab published a method to produce (S)-ibuprofen that is 94% e.e. Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the information provided? O The research lab's product contains 6% of (R)-ibuprofen. O Commercial ibuprofen has 50% enantiomeric excess. O The research lab's product sample will have a negative value for its observed rotation. Commercial ibuprofen sample is optically inactive.
