Glycine has pKa values of 2.34 and 9.60. At what pH does glycine exist in the indicated form?
Glycine is a diprotic acid, which can potentially undergo two dissociation reactions, one for the a-amino group (-NH3), and
the other for the carboxyl (-COOH) group. Therefore, it has two pKą values. The carboxyl group has a pK₁ of 2.34 and the
a-amino group has a pK₂ of 9.60. Glycine can exist in fully deprotonated (NH₂-CH₂-COO-), fully protonated
(NH3-CH₂-COOH), or zwitterionic form (NH3-CH₂-COO-).
Match the pH values with the corresponding form of glycine that would be present in the highest concentration in a solution of th
pH.
fully deprotonated form
NH,−CH,−COO-
pH 11.9
pH 6.0
pH 8.0
fully protonated form
NH3-CH₂-COOH
pH 1.0
Answer Bank
pH 7.0
zwitterionic form
NH3-CH₂-COO-
h) Specify the absolute (R/S) configuration of the amino group in structure IV.
(i) If the substituents in structures I, IV and V were identical (all OH or all NH2), which structure would result in a meso compound?
(j) If each hydroxy group for structures I, II and VI were replaced with another amino group, which compound would be made optically inactive?
