How do i describe the condensation reaction for the formation polypeptides?
Wiki User
∙ 15y ago
Polypeptides form with a dehydration reaction that produces an amide bond with water as a byproduct.
NH2RCOOH + NH2RCOOH --> NH2RCONHRCOOH + H2O
An amine tail reacts with the carboxylic acid of another amino acid. An amide bond is formed.

∙ 9y agoTwo amino acids condense by forming a peptide bond via a condensation reaction. A H is lost from an amino acid's amine group while a hydroxyl group is lost from the other amino acid's carboxyl group.
The amino acids formed can join together to form proteins of any lengths.

Why aldol condensation is called condensation reaction?
All condensation reactions proceed with formation of water (H2O). If you look at the reaction mechanism for Aldol condensation, you will observe that water is formed as an end-product of the reaction.
What type of reactions build large molecules from smaller and simpler molecules?
The formation of large molecules from small repeating units is known as a condensation reaction. A condensation reaction is also known as dehydration synthesis.
What chemical reaction form polysaccharides?
Dehydration reaction because it removes the water.
Define the type of chemical reaction involved in the formation of a peptide linkage between two amino acids and state the other product in addition to a dipetide?
The type of chemical reaction involved is called the "dehydration synthesis reaction".
Is sucrose a hydrolysis reaction or a condensation reaction?

What type of reaction results in the formation of all macromolecules?
by condensation reaction

Is claisen condensation a condensation reaction?
Of course,The Claisen Condensation is typically the reaction between two esters, in the presence of base, leading to formation of an ester enolate that reacts with an uncharged ester, thereby displacing it's "alcohol part" as the leaving group. The sequence leads to the formation of beta ketoesters. The intramolecular (cyclic) version of the Claisen Condensation is known as the Dieckmann Condensation, and is illustrated through the article, "Dieckmann Condensation Missing Piece."
How are polypeptides held together?
peptide bonds through the reaction of NH3 group with COOH. removal of water molecular and formation of ( NH2 -- CH=O--)
Is sucrose a hydrolysis reaction or a condensation reaction?

Compare the process used in the formation of a dipeptide and a disaccharide?
In the formation of a dipeptide, the two amino acids bond through their two functional groups (the carboxyl and amino groups). In the amino group, a hydrogen atom is taken off and in the carboxyl group; the oxygen-hydrogen molecule is taken off. The carbon atom within the carboxyl group bonds with the nitrogen in the amino group. In a disaccharide, they bond through a Carbon then Oxygen then Carbon (C-O-C). Similar to the formation of a dipeptide, a water molecule is removed because of the condensation reaction.
What is another name for condensation reaction?
A condensation reaction is a chemical reaction where man-made polymers are made. Condensation reaction is a reaction that links monomers with the release of water.
