Modify Methionine, below, to show its zwitterion form
The neutral structure of amino acid, methionine, is given and the zwitter form needs to be drawn. This can be done by proton transfer from carboxylic acid to the amino group.
The carboxylic acids containing an amino group are known as amino acids. The skeleton of an amino acid is as follows:
Where R is an alkyl, aryl or heterocyclic group.
Zwitter ion: A zwitter ion is formed by self-neutralization reaction within an amino acid. The positive charge is equal to the negative charge in a zwitter ion and thus, the overall molecule is neutral and has no net charge.
Write the given structure of methionine and encircle the amino and carboxylic groups as shown below:
The carboxylic and the amino groups in order to identify the points of proton transfer taking place in next step.
The zwitter ion is as follows:
The zwitter ion of methionine is as follows:
In the above step, proton transfer takes place from carboxylic group to the amino group to form the corresponding zwitter ion of methionine. The zwitter ion formed is a dipolar molecule having equal positive and negative charges, making it overall a neutral molecule.
The zwitter ion of methionine is as follows:
The zwitter ion of methionine is as follows:
Modify methionine, below, to show its zwitterion form. Modify the amino acid by adding or removing atoms or bonds, and by adding charges where appropriate. If you make a mistake or wish to reset the image, click on the red arrows in the molecule menu.
