Vedclass · Answer

(A) Alanine is $CH_3CH(NH_2)COOH$. When heated $(\Delta)$,it undergoes intermolecular dehydration to form a cyclic dipeptide known as a diketopiperazine. Specifically,two molecules of alanine condense to form $3,6$-dimethyl$-2,5-$diketopiperazine. Thus,the total number of products formed is $1$ (the cyclic dipeptide) plus water as a byproduct,but in the context of organic synthesis questions regarding the main organic product,the formation of the cyclic dimer is the primary result. However,strictly speaking,the reaction $2 	ext{ Alanine} \xrightarrow{\Delta} 	ext{Diketopiperazine}   2H_2O$ yields the cyclic product and water. Given the options,the question asks for the number of organic products,which is $1$.

Alanine $\xrightarrow{\Delta }$ Product,total number of products formed in this reaction.
