Chapter 26.SE, Problem 28MP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Peptides may be synthesized using an α-keto acid and a hydroxylamine.
Concept introduction:
The reaction of formation of an amide/ peptide from an α-keto acid and a hydroxylamine involves an initial nucleophilic substitution of the alkyl group to the keto group followed by decarboxylation and elimination of water molecule.
To determine:
Mechanism of reaction thought to occur by nucleophilic addition of the N-alkylhydroxylamine to the keto acid as if forming an oxime.

The addition of a nucleophilic group like a thiol (-SH), or an
unprotonated amino group (-NH₂) to an a,ß-unsaturated ketone is important for
understanding how NAPQI reacts with glutathione, N-acetylcysteine, or protein amino
acid side chains containing -SH or -NH2 groups.
In this problem we will add mercaptoethanol to p-benzoquinone. p-Benzoquinone will be
a simple model of NAPQI.

H
a single uncharged addition product
This reaction will proceed in steps. First the H-S-R will add to the unsaturated ketone to
give a charged addition product. Next, a simple proton transfer will form an uncharged
adduct in which the 6-membered ring contains one carbonyl and a second enolic
hydroxyl. The keto form next will tautomerize to its more stable enol form, and in doing
so the 6-membered ring becomes aromatic with 6-π electrons.

- When an α-hydroxy amide is treated with Br2 in aqueous NaOH under Hofmann rearrangement conditions, loss of CO2 occurs and a chain-shortened aldehyde is formed.

Abstraction of the remaining amide proton by base gives a resonance-stabilized bromoamide anion 3; Rearrangement occurs to yield isocyanate 4; Water adds to the isocyanate to yield carbamic acid 5; Elimination of CO2 yields carbinolamine 6; Following proton transfer, expulsion of ammonia yields the final product aldehyde.
