Answer parts (a) (c) related to part of the synthesis of a pharmaceutical. K M (a) Draw amine, K, in a chair-form and label the equatorial and axial positions. (5) (b) Reaction of K with an alkyl chloride, L, generates substituted amine, M. Draw the structure of L and state what type of reaction this is. (5) (c) In practice this type of reaction (K to M) can be hard to control. Explain why this is the case. (5) (d) Re-draw the reaction sequence shown below and label the functional groups present in compounds N to P. (5) OH N Hâ‚‚NOH Acid Nylon 5 N O P (e) Compound P can be used to form the polymer Nylon 5 which contains the same type of functional group present in P. Provide a diagram to illustrate the structure of Nylon 5 and give the name for the important class of biological molecules which are also polymers based on this type of functional group. (5)
