1. (10 points) Write an accurate, hand-drawn structure, clearly indicating
the correct configuration of any chiral centers. Label every chiral center
with an asterisk (*).
2. (10 points) Identify the hybridization of each carbon atom. Designate
sp2 with a triangle and sp with a square; leave sp3 carbon atoms unlabeled.
3. (10 points) Indicate the presence of two different functional groups
by circling them and naming the functional group or family. Alkanes and
cycloalkanes won't be considered functional groups.
4. (10 points) Identify acidic and basic sites. Aim an arrow at the site
that would be most likely to accept a proton and the hydrogen that would
be most likely lost as a proton.
5. (10 points) Describe something about its biological source, activity
or function.
