Chapter 16.8, Problem 32P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanisms for the following reactions should be determined.

  1. 1. The acid-base catalyzed hydrolysis of an imine to a carbonyl compound and a primary amine.
  2. 2. The acid-base catalyzed hydrolysis of an enamine to a carbonyl compounds and a secondary amine.

Concept introduction:

The chemical compound containing carbon and nitrogen double bond is known as imine.

Enamine is derived by the condensation of an aldehyde or ketone with secondary amine.

The reaction of a nitrile with an alcohol in the presence of a strong acid forms an N-substituted amide. This reaction, known as the Ritter reaction, doesnot work with primary alcohols. a. Why does the Ritter reaction not work with primary alcohols? b. Provide an explanation for why an amide is less susceptible to nucleophilic attack than its corresponding ester.
