Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The classes of reactions are involved in the cleavage of the Fmoc group with piperidine,

leading to the unprotected amino acid and the fluorene byproduct are to be determined. The mechanisms for these reactions are to be written.

Concept introduction:

The 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl protecting group (Fmoc) is a protecting group particularly used in peptide chemistry. It protects the amino group of the first amino acid. It is stable under low pH, but can be removed under high pH. The solution of 20% piperidine in DMF is usually employed.

Show the saponification products of the following ester: You don't need to draw in the Na+ cation. catalyst, A catalyst, A catalyst, A
What would happen if the carboxylic acid and alcohol groups were on the same molecule? In essence, the molecule reacts with itself. Draw the structure of the products formed in this manner using the reactants below. If two functional groups interact with one another on the same molecule, this is called an “intramolecular" (within one) rather than "intermolecular" (between two or more) attack.
