- Oxytocin, sold under the trade name Pitocin, is a naturally occurring hormone used to stimulate uterine contractions and induce labor. Classify each amide in oxytocin as 1°, 2°, or 3°.arrow_forwardLabel each nitrogen-containing functional group in lidocaine, a local anesthetic, as an amine or amide, and classify it as 1 °, 2 °, or 3 °.arrow_forwardFenfluramine and phentermine are two components of fen–phen, an appetite suppressant withdrawn from the market in 1997 after it was shown to damage the heart valves in some patients. What products are formed when fenfluramine and phentermine are each treated with acetic acid (CH3CO2H)?arrow_forward

- Explain why many amines with useful medicinal properties are sold as their ammonium saltsarrow_forwardIndicate whether the following statement is true or false. Aliphatic amines are more basic than ammonia, whereas aromatic amines are less basic than ammonia.RightFalsearrow_forwardWhat products are formed when each amide is hydrolyzed with water and HCl?arrow_forward
- What amine is formed by reduction of each amide?arrow_forwardGive an acceptable name for each amine.arrow_forwardIn the 1880's, Acetanilide, sold under the name Antifebrin, was widely used as a pain reliever and fever reducer. However, it had many adverse side effects, including cyanosis as a result of methemoglobinemia. The toxic side effects were the result of a small portion of acetanilide being hydrolyzed to aniline. Acetanilide was discontinued and replaced with phenacetin. Later studies show that both acetanilide and phenacetin are metabolized to acetaminophen. This metabolite, which we know as Tylenol, is responsible for the analgesic and antipyretic properties.
