The rate constant for the uncatalyzed reaction of two molecules of glycine ethyl ester to form glycylglycine ethyl ester is 0.6 M- 1s - 1. In the presence of Co2 +, the rate constant is 1.5 * 106 M- 1s - 1. What rate enhancement does the catalyst provide?
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA's) in oils 0.g. sunflower oil are prone to rancidity because they contain conjugated double bond systems which are easily oxidized in the presence of light or peroxides.

Imidazoleglycerol‑phosphate dehydratase is an enzyme in the histine biosynthesis pathway. It catalyzes the E1 dehydration of D‑erthyro‑imidazole‑glycerol phosphate to imidazole acetol‑phosphate. This is a rare example of a biological E1 reaction, as most biological elimination reactions occur through E1cB instead. In this reaction, D‑erthyro‑imidazole‑glycerol phosphate is first protonated to form a good leaving group. Then, the leaving group is ejected to form the resonance‑stabilized carbocation shown. Draw curved arrows forming the most stable resonance structure to explain why this reaction goes through an E1 mechanism. Draw curved arrows to form the most stable resonance structure.
