What could be a potential use of adipic acid? A) Not much, adipic acid is a 1,6-dicarboxylic acid, so it easily decarboxylates. B) Adipic acid is extensively used in turophilic chemistry. C) Adipic acid is structurally related to sebacic acid. - We used sabacic acid to make 6,1d-Nylon. So if adipic acid were converted into its acid chloride, and then reacted with hexane-1,6-diamine, one could make 6,6-Nylon. D) Adipic acid is extremely toxic, so it is seldomly used in synthetic chemistry.

A chemically modified guanidino group is present in cimetidine (Tagamet), a widely prescribed drug for the control of gastric acidity and peptic ulcers. Cimetidine reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the interaction of histamine with gastric H2 receptors. In the development of this drug, a cyano group was added to the substituted guanidino group to alter its basicity. Do you expect this modified guanidino group to be more basic or less basic than the guanidino group of arginine? Explain.
