Make a laboratory procedure in which it
explains the synthesis of Isoleucine. Explain the
materials used, as well as the
instruments/apparatus and
chemical/reagents
A. First Step 2-Methyl-1-butanol reacts with sodium dichromate (Na2Cr207) in acidic catalyst (sulfuric acid, H2SO4) to form 2-Methylbutanoic acid. Na2Cr2O7 H2SO4 OH OH O 2-Methylbutanoic acid 2-Methyl-1-butanol Figure 2. First step of the synthesis for isoleucine
B. Second Step 2-Methylbutanoic acid reacts with thionyl chloride (SOCh), diazomethane (CH2N2), and silver oxide (Ag20, H2O) to produce 3-Methylpentanoic acid. This reaction is known as Arndt-Eistert reaction. OH 1. SOCI 3. CH2N2 2. Ag20, H2O OH 2-Methylbutanoic acid 3-Methylpentanoic acid Figure 3. Second step of the synthesis for Isoleucine
C. Third Step: 3-Methylpentanoic acid reacts with bromine (Bra) in the presence of red-phosphorus (Red-P) to form 2-Bromo-3-methylpentanoic acid. O O Red-P, Br2 u ОН OH Br 2-Bromo-3-methylpentanoic acid 3-Methylpentanoic acid Figure 4. Third step of the synthesis for Isoleucine
D. Fourth Step: 2-Bromo-3-methylpentanoic acid reacts with 2 molecules of ammonia (2 NH3), followed by hydrolysis to form Isoleucine ((2-amino-3-methylpentanoic acid)). H2O + 2 NH3 + 2 NH4B ОН Br + NH3 Isoleucine 2-Bromo-3-methylpentanoic acid Ammonium bromide Figure 5. Fourth step of the synthesis for Isoleucine
