Vedclass · Answer

(B) For structure $(i)$ (Fischer projection): The priorities are $1: -OH$,$2: -COOH$,$3: -CH_3$,$4: -H$. Since the lowest priority group $(-H)$ is on a horizontal line,the clockwise direction $(1$ $\rightarrow 2$ $\rightarrow 3)$ corresponds to the $S$ configuration.For structure $(ii)$ (3D projection): The priorities are $1: -OH$,$2: -Br$,$3: -CH_2CH_3$,$4: -CH_3$. The lowest priority group $(-CH_3)$ is on a dashed bond (pointing away). The sequence $1$ $\rightarrow 2$ $\rightarrow 3$ is counter-clockwise,which corresponds to the $S$ configuration.Therefore,both structures have the $S$ configuration.

What are the configurations for $(i)$ and $(ii)$ respectively?
