Chemistry
Write structure for oligopeptides “Boc-CPID-benzyl ester” and “Methy ester-CGLK-Boc”. Also show all the possible types of bonding between the two peptide chains.
As we’ve discussed, a peptide bond is made when amino group of one amino acid combines with the carboxylic acid group of another amino acid (releasing a water molecule in the process). The C-N bond formed in this process is called a peptide bond. Peptide bonds have a few properties that might be unexpected. a) One property is that the molecular geometries around the C and N atom in the peptide bond are generally planar with bond angles of approximately 120 degrees. Provide an explanation for why the peptide bond would have this property, using Lewis structures, VSEPR theory and/or valence bond theory as appropriate.

- Write the structural formula of a compound with an unbranched chain of five carbon atoms that is an alkane. You do not have to consider stereochemistry. Assume for the purposes of this problem that, to be an alcohol (-ol) or an amine (-amine), the hydroxyl or amino group must be bonded to a tetrahedral (sp3 hybridized) carbon atom.

- Peter Parker is looking for new materials for his synthetic web. Materials generally involve polymers, which are long, repeating molecules, which can be linear or branched, which can have molecular masses in the order of thousands or tens of thousands of Daltons. To prepare polymers, advanced reactions are usually required, such as coupling reactions, Ziegler – Natta, advanced oxidations, among others. The characteristics of the polymer depend of the properties of the geometry and polarity of its precursors, so Parker decides to study different precursors proposed by Tony Stark. Help Parker with his investigation: a) Stark proposes to Parker that he can use some anions as crosslinking ligands between cationic polymers to increase the strength of your webs. He proposes you to try the anions of sodium dithionite (Na2S2O4), lithium borohydride (LiBH4), calcium hexafluorophosphate (Ca (PF6)2), ammonium fluorophosphate ((NH4)2PO3F) and sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3).
