Q: Compound A is a D-aldopentose. When treated with sodium
Compound A is a D-aldopentose. When treated with sodium borohydride, compound A is converted into an alditol that exhibits three signals in its 13C NMR spectrum. Compound A undergoes a Kiliani–Fischer...
See AnswerQ: Proton NMR spectroscopy provides evidence for the restricted rotation of a peptide
Proton NMR spectroscopy provides evidence for the restricted rotation of a peptide bond. For example, N,N dimethylformamide exhibits three signals in its proton NMR spectrum at room temperature. Two...
See AnswerQ: We saw in Section 25.6 that DCC can be used
We saw in Section 25.6 that DCC can be used to form a peptide bond. We explored the mechanism, and we saw that DCC activates the COOH group so that it readily undergoes nucleophilic acyl substitution....
