asparginine

I was wondering how asparginine is artificially synthesized.  I was also wondering how I could get it to undergo amide condensation.  What parameters are needed to get the amine group to react.

Re: asparginine

I assume you mean asparagine.  Check the link below for properties and chemistry references.

Asparagine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Reaction of the amine functionality will probably require basic conditions to shift the zwitterion to the -NH2 form.
