tert-Butoxycarbonyl azide was developed as a reagent for peptide synthesis at OWL's home institution, the University of Massachusetts, by Prof. L.A. Carpino. It is prepared by treating tert-butoxycarbonyl chloride with sodium azide. Propose a structure for the initially-formed intermediate in this reaction.
Quinapril (trade name Accupril) is used to treat high blood pressure andcongestive heart failure. One step in the synthesis of quinapril involvesreaction of the racemic alkyl bromide A with a single enantiomer of theamino ester B.
Given the structure of quinapril, which one of these two products isneeded to synthesize the drug?
Explain this result: Acetic acid (CH3COOH), labeled at its OH oxygen with the uncommon 18O isotope (shown in red), was treated with aqueousbase, and then the solution was acidified. Two products having the 18Olabel at different locations were formed.
