![α-Amino acid methyl esters are relatively unstable: a bottle goes bad in a few months at room temperature. An a-amino acid methyl ester of formula C1oH13NO2 is converted into a compound of formula CisHI8N2O2 and a compound of formula CH40 upon standing: CH 0 H2N (not balanced) α-amino methyl ester an acid The NMR spectra of C10H13NO2 and of C1sH18N202 are shown below (a) [8 points] In the boxes provided draw the structure of C1oH13NO2 and of C18H18N202 (b) [2 points] Draw the structure of CH40 in the box provided.](https://d2vlcm61l7u1fs.cloudfront.net/media%2F3fa%2F3fa75283-f797-4503-83b6-575330e56db5%2FphpFR9zIO.png)
Alpha-Amino acid methyl esters are relatively unstable: a bottle goes bad in a few months at room temperature. An alpha-amino acid methyl ester of formula C_10 H_13 NO_2 is converted into a compound of formula C_18 H_18 N_2 O_2 and a compound of formula CH_4 O upon standing: The NMR spectra of C_10 H_13 NO_2 and of C_18 H_18 N_2 O_2 are shown below. (a) In the boxes provided draw the structure of C_10 H_13 NO_2 and of C_18 H_18 N_2 O_2. (b) Draw the structure of CH_4 O in the box provided.
