10.8 g of cinnamic acid was reacted with 30 cm3 of methanol, which was in
excess, together with about 8 to 10 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid. The
volume of methanol used was about 10 times more than the actual volume
needed as a reactant. The addition of concentrated sulfuric acid to the mixture
was highly exothermic.
The reaction mixture was then heated under reflux for about five hours before
the unreacted methanol was recovered by distillation.

Magainins are a class of proteins isolated from the African Clawed Frog, Xenopus
laevis, found to exhibit potent broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, and are
evaluated for use as drugs for treating diseases.
A major disadvantage of using peptide-based drugs is that their properties may be
lost in the body of the patient due to enzymatic hydrolysis. This may be overcome by
modifying the structure of the amino acids used.
Typical proteins consist of -amino acids, so named because the amino group is on
the -carbon atom, next to the carboxylic acid group.
Draw the structure of a tripeptide that consists of all three of the following
-amino acids:
-leucine:
R = CH2CH(CH3)2
-lysine:
R = CH2CH2CH2CH2NH2
-glutamic acid:
R = CH2CH2COOH
