Carbohydrates- absolute configuration
The last chiral center in an aldose chain (farthest from the aldehyde group) was chosen by Fischer as the D / L designator site
D: if the hydroxyl group in the projection formula points right
L: left directed hydroxyl group (the mirror image) then represented the L-family.
Absolute configuration, which is different from d/l (dextra/levarotary +/-) relative configuration based on rotation of light.
D sugars are the natural form we can assimilate following digestion. (Refer to the highest numbered chiral carbon)

Carbohydrates- Cyclic structure and conformations
Many simple sugars can exist in a chain form or a ring form.
The ring form is favored in aqueous solutions
Alcohol group on the chiral carbon furthest from the carbonyl carbon may act as a nucleophile attacking the carbonyl carbon
Forms hemiacetals in aldoses and hemiketals in ketoses

Carbohydrates-hydrolysis of the glycoside linkage Hydrolysis of starch involves the cleavage of the acetal functional
groups with the addition of a molecule of water for each glycoside linkage
Hydroxyl group reacts with anomeric carbon Produces many molecules of glucose
![Page 12: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Carbohydrates-hydrolysis of the glycoside linkage
This is done by the enzymes called glycosidases or amylases which are found in saliva.
These enzymes work only on alpha glycoside linkages and do not attack beta linkages. Such beta linkages are found in cellulose.
![Page 13: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Amino Acids and Proteins Amino acids are the basic structural units of proteins
They contain an amino group, carboxyl group, a H atom, and a distinct R group (side chain)
AA have acidic and basic properties (zwitterions can be both proton acceptors and donors)
Most exist as zwitterions at physiological pH
Because they are dipolar (+ and – charges) they have unique isoelectric points, but there is no net charge on the molecule
![Page 14: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
AA and Proteins- absolute configuration at the position
Amino acids have a chiral carbon (except glycine), are all L stereo-isomers.

Amino AcidsTitrations and Isoelectric Point (pI)
Isoelectric point of a protein is the pH at which the amino acid exist as a zwitterion
Amino acids essentially exist as diprotic acids at low pH, and their titration curves resemble those of diprotic acids.
![Page 16: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Amino AcidsTitrations and Isoelectric Point (pI)
Amino acids can be separated by placing them in an electric field such as is the case in gel electrophoresis. If a solution of amino acids at pH 8 underwent electrophoresis, which of the following would most likely move the furthest towards the anode?
A. Arginine
B. Glutamate
C. Histidine
D. Lysine

AA and Proteins-reactions Peptide linkage (formation of an amide): This is the
covalent bond that joins amino acids together. Formed by a condensation reaction involving the formation of water (Dehydration synthesis)
It is formed between the alpha-amino group of one amino acid and the alpha-carboxyl group of another amino acid
The peptide bond is rigid due to resonance and partial C=N character.
+ + Water
![Page 19: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
AA and Proteins-reactions Hydrolysis: the reverse reaction Peptides and proteins chains have direction because the chains
have different ends, an alpha-amino end and an alpha-carboxyl end
By convention the amino end is taken as the beginning of a chain An amino acid sequence is written starting from the N-terminal
amino end Thus the tripeptide gly-ala-leu is not the same as leu-ala-gly
because the former has gly at the N-terminal and leu at the C-terminal whereas the latter has leu at the N-terminal and gly at the C-terminal. Chemically, in the former gly has a free amino group, and in the latter leu has a free amino group.

AA and proteins-general principles 1o structure: the amino acid sequence of a protein written from
the amino to the carboxy terminus. 2o structure: certain common repeating structures found in
proteins: alpha-helix and beta-pleated sheet Tertiary structure: the full 3D folded structure of the
protein Quaternary Structure: protein polymers, e.g.
hemoglobin in is made of 4 proteins, 2 alpha globins and 2 beta globins

Lipids Lipids have hydrophobic (long hydrocarbon tails) and
hydrophilic (charged heads) ends Lipid bi-layers
(phospholipids) make up cell membranes
Molecules with polar and non-polar
groups are called amphipathic

![Page 23: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
LipidsFree Fatty Acids
Fatty acids- long carbon chain with carboxylic acid end. Serve as hormones and messengers-
eicosanoids Components of cell membranes Fuel for body
Stored as triacylglycerols Store more than twice the energy of carbohydrates and
proteins
![Page 24: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Triacyl Glycerols (fats and oils) Glycerol backbone with three carboxylic acid derivatives

![Page 25: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Triacyl Glycerols (fats and oils) Saturated: no double bonds; i.e. saturated with hydrogen
Unsaturated: has double bonds. Double bonds can be cis or trans and are bent. The more unsaturated means more irregular structure and a lower MP
Shorter chains also have a lower MP (fewer vDW interactions)
Lipases and phospholipases are enzymes that break up lipids
Treatment with NaOH (saponification) breaks the fat into glycerol and fatty acids. Soap used to be made this way
The Ca2+ ion in water, known as hard water, cross links the head groups causing the soap scum
Natural glyceraldehydes are always D
![Page 26: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
The salts of fatty acids are used as soaps because the salts:
A. have a polar region and a nonpolar region and are thus insoluble in water.
B. have a polar region and a nonpolar region and are thus help organic materials become water soluble.
C. are exclusively polar and thus dissolve in aqueous solutions.
D. are exclusively nonpolar and thus dissolve organic materials.

Terpenes
Terpenes are widespread in nature, mainly in plants as constituents of essential oils.
The building block is the
hydrocarbon isoprene Terpene hydrocarbons have molecular
formulas (C5H8)n Examples camphor, menthol, vitamin A1.

Phosphorus Compounds
ATP, ADP, TTP, GTP, CTP, UTP, Insecticides, phosphatidyl choline, protein phosphorylation, cell signaling
There is a large amount of energy stored in phosphoric acid bonds, so it is used for energy storage
P-O-P is the phosphoricanhydride bond (high energy). C-O-P is the
phosphoester bond.

IR -Absorption
When a compound is exposed to infrared radiation, the polar bonds stretch and contract in a vibrating motion.
Different bonds vibrate at different frequencies In IR Spec, the frequency of IR light is slowly
changed and frequencies of absorption are recorded
No dipole moment = no energy is absorbed

Mass Spectrometry -Emission Molecules ionized by collision with high energy e- (dislodging a
valence e-, and yielding a cation), causing some of the molecules to fragment, (some +, -, and neutral).
Passage of charged fragments through magnetic field then sorts them according to their mass. m/z- mass:charge. z is usually one, so m/z gives mass of + charged
ions. Tallest peak (100%)- base peak, fragment in highest concentration. Unfragmented ion- parent peak, M+ (molecular ion) The peak furthest downfield is the unfragmented cation. The sample
passes through a magnetic field and detects the mass/charge (m/e) ratio
determines molecular weight

NMR: nuclear magnetic resonance
Can tell the protons and their environment. Nuclei align with a magnetic field. Bombarded with electromagnetic energy. Resonance frequency, the nuclei turn against the
magnetic field.• Shielding: e- environment of the proton• Integral value: # of equivalent protons• Spin-spin splitting: peaks splits into n+1. n is the number of adjacent, different protons
![Page 39: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
NMR: nuclear magnetic resonance
Nuclei with odd atomic/mass number exhibit nuclear spin When placed in external magnetic field, nuclei aligns its own field
with or against the external field (with = lower E, against = higher E).
When the nucleus is irradiated with photons, it can absorb energy and flip its orientation in the magnetic field => Resonance.
Electromagnetic radiation is held constant while magnetic field strength varies.
Shielding- EWG shield less and shift the peak downstream, EDG shield more and shift the peak upstream.
Aldehyde protons have a distinctive shift at 9.5ppm

Separations and Purifications
Extraction: distribution of solute between two immiscible solvents. Solvents dissolve impurities and move them to aqueous layer for removal. Products remain in the organic layer. Like dissolves like. Add strong acid: protonates amines and bases to
make them polar Add weak base: deprotonates strong acids to make
them non-reactive Add strong base: deprotonates any remaining acids
* Dilute acids make organic bases soluble in water
* Dilute bases make organic acids soluble in water.http://orgchem.colorado.edu/hndbksupport

Separations and Purifications Distillation: Purification based on
boiling points Lower boiling point will distill first
Raoult’s law: PA = XAPAO
compounds in a mixture combine to boil off together at an intermediate boiling point
Azeotrope: A liquid mixture of two or more substances that retains the same composition in the vapor state as in the liquid state when distilled or partially evaporated under a certain pressure.

Simple vs. Fractional Distillation
Simple distillation- separates components by differences in BP of entire sample. Raoult’s Law
Fractional distillation- initial sample of distillate is continuously redistilled, thus at each point the sample boils at a lower and lower temperature, ultimately approaching the boiling point of the pure substance with the lower boiling point. Accomplished by the use of fractional distillation column,
packed with a suitable material which subjects a mixture to repeating vaporization-condensation cycles until a pure substance emerges.

Separations and Purifications-chromatography
Column chromatography: Add analyte to the top of the column (stationary phase)
Liquid solvent (eluent, mobile phase) is passed over the column
Different interactions with the column (based on size, polarity, etc.) leads to separation
Components are collected as the solvent drips from the column
![Page 45: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Why does an increasing salt gradient release molecules from an ion-exchange column?
A. It increases the molecular weight of the molecules, causing them to move through the column faster.
B. It decreases the strength of the charge interactions between the molecules and the stationery phase.
C. It increases the charge differences between the negatively and positively charged molecules.
D. It fills the porous beads, thereby excluding entrance by the molecules into the column.
![Page 46: Organic Chemistry II](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814961550346895db6b59d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Separations and Purifications-chromatography
Gas-liquid chromatography: The sample is vaporized and injected into the
head of the chromatographic column
The sample is transported through the column by the flow of an inert, gaseous mobile phase
The column itself contains a liquid stationary phase which is adsorbed on to the surface of an inert solid

Separations and Purifications-chromatography
Paper chromatography: A sheet of paper is the inert phase Analyze complex mixtures, such as ink, by separating
them into the chemicals from which they are made Degree of retention of a component is called the
retardation factor(Rf) = distance migrated by an analyte (Da)
distance migrated by the solvent (Ds)

Separations and Purifications-chromatography Passages 29 and 32 Recrystaliztation:
Impurities stay in solution and the pure product crystallizes
Solvent choice, is most important. Solvent should dissolve product at high temperature and have high affinity for impurities at low temperature or no affinity at all at high temperature
According to the adage "like dissolves like," a solvent that has a similar polarity to the solute being dissolved will usually dissolve the substance very well.
