The correct Answer is:
To determine which statement is incorrect about the peptide bond, we need to analyze the given statements regarding the characteristics of the peptide bond, particularly focusing on the C-N bond length and its properties. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Peptide Bond Structure**: - A peptide bond is formed between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of another, resulting in a structure represented as C(=O)-N-H. 2. **Analyzing Statement A**: - Statement A claims that the C-N bond length in proteins is larger than the usual bond length of the C-N bond. - In reality, the C-N bond in a peptide bond has some double bond character due to resonance, which typically makes it shorter than a standard C-N single bond. Therefore, this statement is **incorrect**. 3. **Analyzing Statement B**: - Statement B states that spectroscopic analysis shows a planar structure of the C(=O)-N-H group. - This is a correct statement because the peptide bond is indeed planar due to the partial double bond character, which restricts rotation. 4. **Analyzing Statement C**: - Statement C claims that the C-N bond length in proteins is smaller than the usual bond length of C-N. - This statement is correct as the resonance in the peptide bond gives it a shorter bond length compared to a typical C-N single bond. 5. **Analyzing Statement D**: - Statement D states "none of the above," which cannot be correct since we have identified Statement A as incorrect. ### Conclusion: The incorrect statement about the peptide bond is **Statement A**: "C-N bond length in proteins is larger than usual bond length of C-N."
