Question
Chapter 12.8, Problem 12.2MRP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The mechanism of the given reaction has to be explained using curved arrow formalism.
Concept Introduction:
Curved Arrow formalism: The tail of the arrow is placed on the electrons that move. Electrons never flow from atoms which are electron-poor to atoms which are electron-rich, so a curved arrow will never point from an atom with a positive charge to an atom with a negative charge.

What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
