**Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins** Amino Acids Found in Proteins • Amino acids contain two functional groups, an amino group (-NH2) and a carboxyl group (-COOH) which are formed on a carboxylic acid. o Alpha amino acids are those where both functional groups are attached to the same carbon. o Side chain/R group and hydrogen atom are also attached to alpha carbon.  Side chain determines the properties of amino acids and its functions. Terminology • There are a variety of differ...

Different Nitrogen names - ANSWER Enamine: C=C-N Amine : C-N Imine: C=N Amide: O=C-N Imide: O=C-N-C=O Ketone(aldehyde) + 1° amine --> Imine Ketone(aldehyde) + 2° amine ---> Enamine think about it when replace the Oxygen of carbonyl and attach NitrogenR, /Make sure It has a lone pair. for the 2 ° amine move double bond to the C. Amine - ANSWER C-N Myopia (nearsighted) - ANSWER *(-)F= diverging mirror /convex mirror/concave lens *convex mirror: image always virtual...

BCHE 5180 / 6180 FINAL EXAM | Graded A 1 3 points Based on what you have learned about the functioning of enzymes and proteins, explain why the pH in the cell has to be buffered. A large group of enzymes show a pH optimum for their activity. This value is normally close to the pH in the cell. When the pH in the cell changes this can lead to a protonation or deprotonation of an amino acid that is important for the enzymatic activity. As a result the activity will decrease. Upon large change...

Carbanions are looked at with examples and how to stabilise through inductive and resonance effects. Enolate formation reaction is introduced and a look at different bases and how complete deprotonation can be. The stabilisation of enolates develops the topic before the α-halogenation by base or acid catalysed reactions. More enolate reactions are given. Alkylate aldehydes formation through enamines. Aldol reaction through acid and base conditions in either equilibrating and non-equilibrating c...

I got a 1st in my first year studying chemistry at the University of Birmingham using these revision notes that I have uploaded. They include detail on structure of benzene, stability of aromatic compounds, criteria for aromaticity, electrophilic substitution, benzene vs olefin reactivity with electrophiles, arrow-pushing mechanisms for a range of electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, functional group interconversion, selectivity in substitution reactions, how substitutents on a benzene...
