Description
The purpose of this experiment is to look at the antimicrobial properties of a dipeptide. The amino acids used in this experiment are phenylalanine and lysine. A Boc protection and an ester protection will be conducted the amino acids, then a coupling reaction using EDC will form the dipeptide bond between the amino acids. TLC, H NMR, IR, polarimetry, and HPLC will be used to analyze the dipeptide.
