Question

Draw the condensed structural formula for each of the following amides:

a. heptolamide

b. $3-$chlorobenzamide

c. $3-$methyl butyramide

d. $N-$ethylpropanamide

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

( part  a) heptolamide condensed structural formula is, 

(part  b) $3-$chlorobenzamide condensed structural formula is, 

(part c) $3-$methyl butyramide condensed structural formula is, 

(part d) $N-$ethylpropanamide condensed structural formula is, 

Step1: Introduction. (part a)

Amides are carboxylic acid derivatives in which the hydroxyl group has been replaced by an amine. When carboxylic acid reacts with a substrate, a reaction called Amidation occurs

This reaction removes a water molecule as well as a carboxylic acid molecule, but it also combines amine particles.

Step2: Given Information (part a).

To create a condensed structural formula for each of the amides listed below:

heptolamide.

Step3: Explanation (part a).

heptolamide condensed structural formula is,

 

Step4: Given Information (part b).

To create a condensed structural formula for each of the amides listed below:

$3-$chlorobenzamide. 

Step5: Explanation (part b).

$3-$chlorobenzamide condensed structural formula is, 

Step6: Given Information (part c).

To create a condensed structural formula for each of the amides listed below:

$3-$methyl butyramide. 

Step7: Explanation (part c).

$3-$methyl butyramide condensed structural formula is, 

Step8: Given Information (part d).

To create a condensed structural formula for each of the amides listed below:

$N-$ethylpropanamide. 

Step9: Explanation (part d).

$N-$ethylpropanamide condensed structural formula is,
