Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The orbital overlap picture of Tryptophan is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
In chemistry, overlapping of orbital takes place to form bonds between the atoms. At least two orbitals must overlap with each other to form a bond. The examples of orbitals are s, p, d, f orbitals. Sigma bond involves the head to head overlapping of two orbitals; on the other hand, π-bond involves the side to side or lateral overlapping of two orbitals.
(b)
Interpretation:
The aromaticity of tryptophan is to be discussed using orbital overlap diagram.
Concept introduction:
The aromaticity is the phenomena in which compound has odor. The word aromaticity is derived from the word aroma, means odor.

- Carbon bonds to many elements other than itself.(a) Name six elements that commonly bond to carbon in organiccompounds.(b) Which of these elements are heteroatoms?(c) Which of these elements are more electronegative than car-bon? Less electronegative?(d) How does bonding of carbon to heteroatoms increase thenumber of organic compounds?arrow_forwardAs 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. b) Another observation is that although the N-H of the peptide bond is able to serve as a H-bond donor the N atom of the peptide bond does not serve as an effective H-bond acceptor. Provide an explanation for this observation, using Lewis structures, VSEPR theory and/or valence bond theory as appropriate.c) It is also fairly accepted that while proteins undergo dynamic motions and conformational changes, and while R groups can freely rotate about Cα, it is generally not possible to freely rotate around a peptide bond. Please explain this observation, using a picture showing relevant orbitals on relevant atoms (your answer for part (a) might provide a useful basis for your reasoning…arrow_forwardYou are given the structures of the amino acids alanine (Ala), methionine (Met) and threonine (Thr). to H2N CO2H H2N CO2H H2N co,Harrow_forward
