    C)

    D)

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The dipeptide, Gln-Gly, on treatment with \[C{{H}_{3}}COCl\] followed by aqueous work up gives the product shown in option (A). Amino group of glutamine is acetylated. Amide group of glutamine is not acetylated. Note: Acetylation of amide requires activation of amides and/or acyl donors, since the nitrogen atom of amides is less basic than that of the corresponding amines due to amide resonance.
