Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The molecular model of the enamine prepared from acetone and dimethylamine is given. a) The geometry and hydridization of the N atom are to be shown. b)The orbital of nitrogen that holds the lone pair of electrons is to be identified. c) The geometric relationship between the p orbitals of the double bond and the nitrogen orbital that holds the lone pair is to be stated. Why this geometry represents minimum energy is to be explained.
