Compound P was discovered by a scientist. Compound P is a dipeptide,
optically active and has the molecular formula C„H14N2O3. Compound P is
formed when compound Q and compound R joined together by condensation
reaction. While, monomers S and T are formed by modifying the compounds
Q and R. Polymer U is formed by the condensation reaction of monomers S
and T.
Draw the possible structural formulae of compounds P, Q, R, S, T and U.
Label the peptide bond(s) for compound P.
Draw the possible structural formulae for repeating unit of polymer U.
Please state the number of functional groups present in compound P.
