1.In the following compound, the stereo-chemical descriptor for Ha and Hb is…..
(1) enantiotopic
(2) diastereotopic
(3) homotopic
Ans (2)

other and not a mirror image when substituted by ‘X’ as shown below,
2

(1) A and D
(2) A and C
(3) B and C
(4) A, C and D
Ans (4)

8
10.The major product formed in the following reaction is
Ans (4)
Subjection of ketal1 to a Lewis acid gives the corresponding oxacarbenium2, which is poised to undergo
a Prins cyclization to furnish intermediate 3. The empty p orbital in 3 (at C10) is aligned periplanar to the
C1-C2 bond thus allowing this bond to migrate to form bicyclic ketone bearing a quaternary center at
C10.
Heating dimethylmenthyl amine oxide gave a mixture of 2- and 3–menthene, whereas isomeric neo
menthylamine oxide gave only 2–menthene. This is an example of pyrolyticsyn elimination

Soln:
Ans (b)
Soln:
Among OH , Me and i-Pr the ‘A’ value of i-Pr is maximum hence it preferentially occupies equatorial
position.

(b) 5R, 6S
(c) 5S 6R
(d) 5S, 6S
Ans (c)
Soln:
Ans (a)
Soln: In Biphenyl system chirality is due to presence of plane that is why it comes under planar
chirality.Since, the given molecule possesses a chiral plane. Thus it is optically active.

(a) B and D
(b) A and C
(c) A and D
(d) B and C
Ans (a)
Soln:
Ans (a)
Soln: In the presence of acid, protonation takes place, thus reaction will proceed via SN 1 mechanism.
Thus, retenation of configuration will be observed and hence the product formed will be
13
18.Consider the statements about the following structures X and Y
(a) A and C
(b) C
(c) B and D
(d) B and C
Ans (d)
Soln:
Also, it is clear from the structure of X and Y that X is more basic than Y.
19.The constituent amino acids present in the following dipeptide, respectively, are
14

20.For acylation with acetic anhydride/triethylamine, and oxidation with chromium trioxide of the
trans-and cis-alcohols A and B, the correct statement is
(c) A undergoes acylation faster than B, whereas B undergoes oxidation faster than A.
(d) B undergoes acylation faster than A, whereas A undergoes oxidation faster than B.
Ans (c)
Soln:
15
‘A’ undergoes acylation faster while as ‘B’ undergoes oxidation faster.

Ans (b)
16
Soln:
23.In the compound given below, the hydrogenes marked A and B are
(a) homotopic
(b) isotopic
(c) enantiotopic
(d) diastereotopic
Ans (c)
Soln: Homomorphic ligands: Ligands are called homomorphic, if they are indistinguishable when
considered in isolation. Here HA and HB are thus homomorphic.
Two homomorphic ligands are homotopic, if substitution of first one and then the other by an atom or a
group, which is not already attached to the ligating centre, gives identical product, else hetertotopic.
Since substitution of HA and HB by D gives different products, thus HA and HB are heterotopic
Also, two heterotopic ligands are enantiotopic if replacement of first one and then the other by a
different achiral ligand gives rise to two enantiomers.

24.The gauche conformation (Ф=60º) of n-butane posseses
Ans (b)
Soln: The Gauche conformations of n-Butane are non-superimposable mirror image of each other, thus
Gauche conformation is chiral.
If contains neither plane nor centre of symmetry. A C2 axis passes through the mid-point of C2–C3 bond
and bisecting the dihedral angle between the two methyls

18
26.The most stable conformations of 1, 2-difluoroethane and dl-2, 3-butanediol are

CIP Priorities
28.In the compound give below, the relation between H A,HB; and between Br1, Br2 is:
Ans (b)
Soln:
Molecule has a plane of symmetry bisecting HA and HB reflecting Br1/Br2 and CH3/CH3.
Br1 and Br2 are reflected by plane so they are enantiotopic to each other.
HA and HB are bisecting by plane. Hence, they are diesterotopic to each other.
