✦ Synopsis

Hydrogen-oxygen flames, when blown a~Rinst an aqueous solution of methionine, induced conversion reactions to homoserine, 2-aminobutyric acid and glutamic acid. Besides the already-known reactions by a hydroxyl radical, a contribution of a hydrogen atom from hydrogen-rich flames to the reaction was recognized. We successfully controlled the vigorous oxidation of the system using a radical scavenger.

The 13C chemical shifts for all of the protonated carbons of the 20 common amino acid residues in the protected linear pentapeptide Gly-Gly-X-Gly-Gly have been obtained in water at low pH as well as in aqueous solution containing 10, 20 and 30% acetonitrile or trifluoroethanol. Dioxane was used as a
