Concept introduction:
Phenylalanine is an α-amino acid with the formula Phenylalanine is an α-amino acid with the formula C9H11NO2.
Here, the benzyl group is substituted for the methyl group of alanine, or a phenyl group in place of terminal hydrogen of alanine.
Lidocaine, also known as xylocaine and lignocaine, is a medication used to numb tissue in a specific area.
Formula: C14H22N2O

Answer to Problem 19VC
Here, Primary
Here, amide group is present as functional group in this molecule.
Explanation of Solution
From the structure of phenylalanine, it is quite evident that the terminal hydrogen of alanine is replaced by a benzyl or phenyl group.
In this way, carbon forms a covalent bond with another carbon atom or other atoms.
-NH2 group and –COOH groups are present in Phenylalanine.
-NH and C=O (Amide) groups are present as functional groups in Lidocaine.

- NH2 1. CH3–MgCl 2. H3O+ ? As the lead product manager at OrganometALEKS Industries, you are trying to decide if the following reaction will make a molecule with a new C - C bond as its major product: If this reaction will work, draw the major organic product or products you would expect in the drawing area below. If there's more than one major product, you can draw them in any arrangement you like. Be sure you use wedge and dash bonds if necessary, for example to distinguish between major products with different stereochemistry. If the major products of this reaction won't have a new C - C bond, just check the box under the drawing area and leave it blank. Click and drag to start drawing a structure. This reaction will not make a product with a new C - C bond. Х ☐: Carrow_forwardPredict the major products of this organic reaction.
