This is the answer to chapter 20, problem number 24 from the mcmurray organic chemistry textbook.
00:10
This problem talks about pre -gabalin, which the trade name is lyrica.
00:18
You may have seen commercials on the tv.
00:21
I believe this drug is used to treat fibromyalgia.
00:25
And so we're told that the iupac name of pre -gabalin is s3 amino -methyl, 5 -methyl, hexinoic acid.
00:35
And we're asked to draw this.
00:37
Okay, so s3, amino methyl, 5 methyl hexinoic acid.
00:46
And so the base here is hexonylic acid.
00:55
And so we should start by drawing that.
00:58
So one, two, three, four, five, six.
01:05
I don't, that wasn't a great, that wasn't a great drawing.
01:10
Let's try again.
01:12
There we go.
01:13
That looks a little better.
01:15
So hexanolic acid.
01:20
Okay.
01:21
So there is our hexanilic acid.
01:24
And now we just need to account for the substituents.
01:28
So s3 amino methyl, 5 methyl...
