Question
Chapter 27, Problem 27.52P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The BOC-protecting group may be added by treatment of an amino acid with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate. The mechanism for this reaction has to be proposed.
Concept Introduction:
The protecting groups are used to protect the α-amino and α-carboxyl groups present in the amino acids. To prevent the reaction of the unspecified group, it is protected with suitable protecting group.

The addition of a nucleophilic group like a thiol (-SH), or an
unprotonated amino group (-NH₂) to an a,ß-unsaturated ketone is important for
understanding how NAPQI reacts with glutathione, N-acetylcysteine, or protein amino
acid side chains containing -SH or -NH2 groups.
In this problem we will add mercaptoethanol to p-benzoquinone. p-Benzoquinone will be
a simple model of NAPQI.
+H
H
a single uncharged addition product
This reaction will proceed in steps. First the H-S-R will add to the unsaturated ketone to
give a charged addition product. Next, a simple proton transfer will form an uncharged
adduct in which the 6-membered ring contains one carbonyl and a second enolic
hydroxyl. The keto form next will tautomerize to its more stable enol form, and in doing
so the 6-membered ring becomes aromatic with 6-π electrons.
