Interpretation:
The following mechanism, which has the curved arrow omitted, is for another reaction that converts an amide to a
Concept introduction:
The opposite charges attract while the like charges repel. In an elementary step, electrons tend to follow from an electron rich site to an electron poor site. An elementary step can also occur in which only a single bond is broken and both electrons from that bond end up on one of the atoms initially involved in the bond.
