Formation of glutamine is catalyzed by mitochondrial glutamine synthase (Figure 29-7). Since amide bond synthesis is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP to ADP and P , the reaction strongly favors glutamine synthesis. One function of glutamine is to sequester ammonia in a nontoxic form.

It is interesting to note that serine peptidases can, under special conditions in vitro, catalyze the reverse reaction, namely the formation of a peptide bond (Fig. 3.4). The overall mechanism of peptide-bond synthesis by peptidases is represented by the reverse sequence f-a in Fig. 3.3. The nucleophilic amino group of an amino acid residue competes with H20 and reacts with the acyl-enzyme intermediate to form a new peptide bond (Steps d-c in Fig. 3.3). This mechanism is not relevant to the in vivo biosynthesis of proteins but has proved useful for preparative peptide synthesis in vitro [17]. An interesting application of the peptidase-catalyzed peptide synthesis is the enzymatic conversion of porcine insulin to human insulin [18][19].

Asp102, His57, and Ser195 represent the catalytic triad the NH groups of Ser195 and Gly193 form the oxyanion hole . Steps a-c acylation Steps d-f deacylation. A possible mechanism for peptide bond synthesis by peptidases is represented by the reverse sequence Steps f-a.

What is not included here is the need also to protect any vulnerable functional groups in the amino acid side-chains. A range of methods is available to protect amino, carboxyl, thiol, and hydroxyl groups and prevent them reacting during the amide bond synthesis. Such groups also have to be removed after their job is done, using conditions that do not...

Moissan and his colleague Meslans then tried other methods for C —F bond synthesis.121 Alkyl fluorides could not be made via reactions of alcohols with hydrogen fluoride or phosphorus fluorides. However, silvcr(l) fluoride was found to function as a halogen-exchange reagent and several alkyl fluorides were made and characterized, all being fairly resistant to alkaline hydrolysis. 

This chapter, which is based on the literature that had appeared through the end of 1983, surveys the coordination chemistry of the element with special emphasis on structure, bonding, synthesis and chemical behavior. The discussion is limited to well-characterized complexes and well-understood systems.

This type of metal carbonyl derivative has lately been the object of numerous investigations by many research groups with particular reference to metal-metal bond synthesis.3 In our laboratory the nitrosyl carbonyliron compounds R3MFe(NO)(CO)3 (M = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb R= C6H5, C4H9) have been prepared, and shown by infrared studies to have a trigonal bipyramidal structure with Cs symmetry (48). 

A 4-bond synthesis of pyridines from carbonyl compounds, which were subjected to Vilsmeier-Haack conditions giving the conjugated iminium salts, has been achieved by reaction with ammonium acetate (Scheme 113)... 

In this section, acid-catalysed glycosidic bond synthesis and cleavage will be covered. This knowledge is critical to many discussions that will follow in subsequent chapters. In Chapter 4, modern approaches to the introduction of glycosidic linkages are discussed.
