  • Methylphenidate, also known as Ritalin, is a psychostimulant drug approved for the treatment of attention-deficit disorder. Identify all stereogenic (chiral) centres in methylphenidate by clearly marking each with an asterisk (*) on the structure below.

Marks 7

Using one stereogenic centre you have identified, draw the ( R )-configuration of that centre.

How many stereoisomers are there of methylphenidate? Describe the relationships between these isomers.

4 isomers: there are 2 pairs of enantiomers: Each isomer has 1 enantiomer and 2 diastereoisomers

Give the products formed when methylphenidate is hydrolysed with 4 M HCl.

  • Consider the three compounds shown below.

Arrange these compounds in order of increasing acidity. Explain your reasoning.

Marks 3

Ethanol is the weakest acid as its conjugate base is not resonance stabilised. Phenol is a stronger acid as its conjugate base is resonance stabilised – the negative charge can be delocalised into the aromatic ring as shown below.

There is even greater resonance stabilisation for the acetate ion (the conjugate base of acetic acid), as the negative charge is delocalised onto the electronegative oxygen atoms (as opposed to the carbon atoms in the case of phenol).

  • The incomplete mechanism for the reaction of acetyl chloride with hydroxide ions is shown below. The reaction occurs in three steps. In each step complete the mechanism by adding curly arrows to indicate the bond changes taking place.
