Question
Chapter 17, Problem 3LGP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The details of the mechanism for the reaction between mixed anhydride and Z-Ala-Leu, and how carbon dioxide and ethanol are formed in the mechanisms are to be discussed.
Concept introduction:
The reaction between nucleophile and acyl compounds is called nucleophilic acyl substitution.
Nucleophilic acyl substitution describe a class of substitution reactions involving nucleophiles and acyl compounds. In this type of reaction, a nucleophile—such as an alcohol, amine, or enolate—displaces the leaving group of an acyl derivative—such as an acid halide, anhydride, or ester.
A mixed anhydride is a
Acid chlorides react with
The carboxylic acid is converted into acid chlorides in the presence of thionyl chloride.
Decarboxylation is the loss of carbon dioxide.

the acidity of the amine ion drives the reaction to shift toward the conjugate base of the carboxylic acid product.
the resulting carboxylic acid ion is a weaker base than an acetate ion.
O aldehydes are more reactive toward nucleophiles than ketones.
Onucleophilic attack occurs preferentially at the less hindered carbon of the formyl group.
The deuterium kinetic isotope effect (kH2O/kD2O) for the hydrolysis of aspirin is 2.2. What does this tell you about the kind of catalysis exerted by the ortho-carboxyl substituent? (Hint: It is easier to break an O¬H bond than an O¬D bond.)
