All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeDevise a synthesis of the following dipeptide from amino acid starting materials.
Write out the steps for the synthesis of each peptide using the Merrifield method:
(a)Ala-Leu-Phe-Phe;
(b) Phe-Gly-Ala-Ile.
Besides asymmetric hydrogenation (Section 29.4), several other methods are now available for the synthesis of optically active amino acids. How might a reaction like the Strecker synthesis be adapted to the preparation of chiral amino acids?
Name each peptide using both the one-letter and the three-letter abbreviations for the names of the component amino acids.
a.
b.
Devise a synthesis of threonine from diethyl acetamidomalonate.
