Question
Chapter 24, Problem 24.37SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: A structure for the unknown pentapeptide is to be proposed.
Concept introduction: Pentapeptide is the peptide consisting of five amino acids. Peptide synthesis requires the formation of amide bonds between proper amino acids in proper sequence. A peptide is treated with phenyl isothiocyanate followed by acid hydrolysis.
To determine: A structure for the unknown pentapeptide.

Aspartame (Nutrasweet®) is a remarkably sweet-tasting dipeptide ester. Complete hydrolysis of aspartame gives phenylalanine, aspartic acid, and methanol. Mild incubation with carboxypeptidase has no effect on aspartame. Treatment ofaspartame with phenyl isothiocyanate, followed by mild hydrolysis, gives the phenylthiohydantoin of aspartic acid.Propose a structure for aspartame.
Tetrapeptide A is completely hydrolysed under acidic conditions to yield alanine, aspartic acid, isoleucine and valine. On neutralisation of the hydrolysate, an odour of ammonia is detected. The reaction of the tetrapeptide with phenylisothiocyanate, followed by mild hydrolysis yields no phenylthiohydantoin derivative. Incubation of A with carboxypeptidase A has no effect either.
