Many of the materials we use today are made by chemical synthesis. Most of the new compounds made today are organic.

Most of the new compounds made today are organic, that is, they are composed largely of carbon.

MAKING COMPLEX MOLECULES

Hermann Emil Fischer Germany (1852-1919)

Fischer achieved the first synthesis of the first truly complicated organic molecules, the sugar molecule D-glucose in 1890.

Willstatter’s synthesis of tropine

Robinson’s synthesis of tropinone in 1917

The Robinson’s synthesis of tropinone was hailed as revolutionary. This was to look at the target molecule and try to imagine how the molecule could be constructed from simpler chemical units.

“There is excitement, adventure, and challenge, and there can be great art in organic synthesis.” - Woodward

Corey, Elias James1928–, American organic chemist and educator, b. Methuen, Mass., grad. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (B.S. 1948, Ph.D. 1951). In 1990, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

Some prostaglandins affect human blood pressure at concentrations as low as 0.1 microgram per kilogram of body weight. Substances that inhibit prostaglandin synthesis may be useful in controlling pain, asthma attacks, and anaphylactic shock and in reducing the clotting ability of blood.

Retrosynthetic Analysis by Corey

Retrosynthetic analysis (or retrosynthesis) : the process of mentally breaking down a molecule into starting materialsRetrosynthetic arrow: an open-ended arrow, , used to indicate the reverse of a synthetic reactionSynthon: idealized fragments resulting from a disconnection. Synthons need to be replaced by reagents in a suggested synthesis

Efficiency and selectivity are important characteristics that have to be taken into account.

[Efficiency: yields, number of steps][Selectivity: chemoselectivity, regioselectivity, stereoselectivity]

Enantiomers and the Tetrahedral Carbon

Louis Pasteur Chemist

1822-1895

“Chance favors only prepared mind.” -Louis Pasteur

Louis Pasteur was born on December 27, 1822 in Dole, in the region of Jura, France.

Resolution of enantiomersin 1848

Twenty years later, J. H. van’t Hoff and J.-A. Le Bel independently explained the origins of enantiomers based on the tetrahedral nature of carbon bonding.

Optical ActivityLight restricted to pass through a plane is plane-polarized.

Solutions of chiral compounds rotate plane-polarized light and the molecules are said to be optically active.

Some Physical Properties of the Stereoisomers of Tartaric Acid

To obtain one pure enantiomer, resolution is required.

Only one enantiomer is obtained by asymmetric synthesis.
