| What is characteristic or aromatic amines? | A benzene ring |
| Describe the structure of amino acid | \(NH_2\) group COOH group variable R group in the middle |
| Which amino acid is the simplest? | Glycine |
| Which has a higher BP, primary or tertiary amines and why? | Primary because they can hydrogen bond. |
| What do primary amines smell like? | Fishy with long chains and like ammonia for shorter chains |
| What is a stronger base ammonia or primary alkyl amines? | Primary alkyl amines because the alkyl group is electron pushing and enhances the LP on nitrogen. |

| Do AAs dissolve in organic solvents? | No |
| When do Zwitteron ions exist? | At the isoelectric point; pH when the overall charge of the amino acid = 0 |
| Refluxing a protein with HCl does what? | Hydrolyses it into AAs |
| Rf = | Distance moved by AA ___________________________________ Distance moved by solvent |
