Question
Chapter 26.5, Problem 10P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
In peptide analysis, -SH groups of cysteine are capped by SN2 reaction with iodoacetate.
Concept introduction:
In preparation for analysis, the peptide is broken into its constituent amino acids by reducing all disulfide bonds, capping the -SH groups of cysteine residues by SN2 reaction with iodoacetic acid, and hydrolyzing the amide bonds by heating with aqueous 6 M HCl at 110°C for 24 hours.
To determine:
Structure of product that would be obtained by SN2 reaction of cysteine and iodoacetic acid.

NON
CH,
Treatment of pentanedioic (glutaric) anhydride with ammonia at elevated temperature leads to a compound of molecular formula C5H7NO2. What is the structure of this product? [Hint: You need to think about the reactivity not only of acid anhydrides but also of amides and carboxylic acids]. Please show mechanism.
The stability of our genetic code depends on the stability of DNA. We are fortunate that the aminoacetal linkages ofDNA are not easily cleaved. Show why your mechanism for part (a) does not work so well with deoxycytidine anddeoxyadenosine.
