- Which of the compounds have the lowest pKA, why?arrow_forwardThe preceding equation for the protonation of acetamide shows a hypothetical product that is not actually formed. When acetamide is protonated by a strong enough acid, it does not protonate on nitrogen, but at a different basic site. Draw the structure of the actual conjugate acid of acetamide, and explain (resonance) why protonation occurs where it does rather than on nitrogen. Calculate the pKa of this conjugate acid.arrow_forwardCan any functional groups on Risperidone ionize? If so, which ones? Under what conditions? What are the pKa values of these functional groups?
