Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The strucutre for the given name of the compound has to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The structure of the organic compound and its name are closely related to each other. The structure of the compound can be drawn if the name is given and vice-versa. The name of an organic compounds tells about the number of carbons present in the compound which is necessary so as to draw the carbon skeleton in the structure. The suffix of the name of the compound provides information about the functional group present in the compound.

Answer to Problem 31P

The structure of  N,Ndimethylhexanamide is:

EBK ESSENTIAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Chapter 11, Problem 31P , additional homework tip  1

Explanation of Solution

The structure of the compound can be drawn if the name is given and vice-versa. The name of the compound is  N,Ndimethylhexanamide. It indicates that six carbons are present in the compound. The suffix is ‘amide’ indicating the presence of an amide group (CONH2). There are two methyl groups attached to nitrogen instead of hydrogens.

Thus, the structure is drawn as,
