Question
Chapter 4, Problem 55P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The configuration of naproxen active ingredient has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
R and S nomenclature: it is used to assign the molecule using CIP rules.
The CIP rules are as follows:
- Select the chiral carbon and assign the numbers according to the decreasing
atomic mass of atoms attached to it. - If the numbering follows clockwise direction then the molecule is termed as R and if it follows anti-clockwise direction then molecule is termed as S.

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.

It has been suggested that the presence of such carbon atoms is responsible for the carcinogenic properties of these molecules.
