Question
Chapter 17.1, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Remove a proton from the alpha carbon of
Concept introduction: The electrons left behind when a proton is removed from the alpha carbon of an amide are not readily delocalized. This is because the nitrogen of the
Thus the lone pair on the alpha carbon and the lone pair on the nitrogen compete for the delocalization onto the same oxygen.
