Question
Chapter 26.4, Problem 8P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The steps in the synthesis of valine from diethyl acetamidomalonate are to be outlined. A reason for the low yield of about
Concept Introduction:
The hydrogen bonded to the carbon between the two ester groups of diethylmalonate is acidic because of the adjacent electron withdrawing groups.
Deprotonation with a strong base such as an alkoxide generates a carbanion which can act as a nucleophile.

The first step in the catabolism of most amino acids is the removal of the nitrogen atom by transfer to an a-keto acid, a reaction
catalyzed by an enzyme called a transaminase. The a-keto acid acceptor is often a-ketoglutarate. Modify the structures in the
product to show the products of the transamination of cysteine. Be sure to show functional groups with the charge and number of
attached hydrogen atoms appropriate for pH 7.4.
