Glossary

  • vitamin (water soluble vitamin, fat soluble vitamin) : a substance

needed in small amounts for normal body functions that the body

cannot synthesize in adequat amounts

  • enzyme : a protein that is a catalyst
  • metalloenzyme : an enzyme that has a tightly bound metal ion

cofactor : an organic molecule or a metal ion that certain enzymes

need in order to catalyze a reaction or a process

  • coenzyme : an organic molecule (vitamin) as cofactor
  • prosthetic group : a cofoctor permanently associated with the

protein, often covalently bound

  • holoenzyme : catalytically active enzyme-cofactor complex.
  • apoenzyme : an enzyme without its cofactor (enzymatically inactive

protein)

Problems - 1

@ Vitamin C and Vitamin E are both natural radical inhibitors. Explain why

this is so.

@ Explain why vitamin C is a „strong“ acid

@ Ascorbinsäure can be methylated by diazomethane. Which functional

group is most sensitive towards methylation?

@ (L)-Sorbose which is an intermediate in the technical synthesis of vitamin

C, forms a furanosid by reaction with aceton/H+.

Discuss the mechanism of formation. Are there diastereotopic methyl

groups?

Problems - 2

@ Apply Woodward-Hoffmann-Rules for the synthesis of Vitamin D 3.

Sum up the WH-rules for the electrocyclic and sigmatropic reactions

under thermal respectively photochemical conditions.

a) Which stereoisomer is formed by irradiating (2E,4Z,6Z)-

octatriene?

@ Stereoselective oxidoreduction of ketones and alcohols using horse

liver alcohol dehydrogenase (HLADH) needs NADH as cofactor.

NADH is rather expensive and has to be recycled. Recyclization can

be achieved by natrium dithionite. Formulate the reaction sequence

for the keton reduction by HLADH/NADH and the subsequent

recyclization of NAD+^ by dithionite.

@ Assign the pro-R hydrogen and the pro-S hydrogen of NADH.

@ Compare typical applications of NAD+/NADH und FAD as

oxidoreductases with regard to their involvements in the biochemical

processes.
