(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The bromination of compound followed by amination to synthesize glycine.

Interpretation: The bromination of compound followed by amination to synthesize glycine is to be stated.

Concept introduction: The process of an introduction of bromine atom into a compound is known as bromination. Amino acids are carbon containing compounds that possess two functional groups named as amine (NH2) and carboxyl (COOH) and these are prepared by reductive amination of αketoacids by using transaminase enzyme and bromination of carboxylic acid groups followed by amination. Reductive amination comprises transformation of carbonyl group of keto acids to an imine intermediate, which leads to the formation of an amine. Transaminase enzymes are specifically used for speed up the transamination reactions.
