01

Organic compounds

Compounds which contain carbon are bonded with other elements such as hydrogen, nitrogen and so on, either in open or closed chain are said to be organic compounds.

02

Formation of products

a. 2-amino-3-methylbutanoic acid is treated with acetic anhydride and acylase to form a mixture of acidic compound.

Formation of acidic compound

b. Acidic indole is treated with Rh catalyst which on further reaction forms (S) isomer.

a.(S)-Penicillamine, an amino acid that does not occur in proteins, is used as a copper chelating agent to treat Wilson’s disease, an inherited defect in copper metabolism.

(R)-Penicillamine is toxic, sometimes causing blindness. Draw the structures of (R) and (S)-penicillamine.

b. What disulfide is formed from oxidation of L-penicillamine?

What steps are needed to convert A to L-dopa, an uncommon amino acid that is effective in treating Parkinson’s disease? These steps are the key reactions in the first commercial asymmetric synthesis using a chiral transition metal catalyst. This process was developed at Monsanto in 1974.
