Chapter 27, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The structure of (R)- and (S)-penicillamine is to be drawn.

Concept introduction: The chemical compounds in which carbon is bonded with acidic and basic group along with hydrocarbon side chain are known as amino acids. The configuration of compound is R and S when the substituents around stereogenic center, from higher priority to lower priority, are present in clockwise and anticlockwise direction, respectively.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation: The disulfide formed by the oxidation of (S)-penicillamine is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: The chemical compounds in which carbon is bonded with acidic and basic group along with hydrocarbon side chain are known as amino acids. A disulphide bond is formed when two amino acids containing SH group undergoes oxidation.
