Problem 21, we are asked to write the product given the following reactions.
00:05
Okay, so part a, we got a carboxylic acid and an amine.
00:11
Okay.
00:12
So for these types of problems, it's very important to be able to find the function group or the part of the molecule that would be responsible for reacting.
00:21
Okay, in this case, having this benzene ring right here is not really going to affect what we are doing, at least for this specific reaction, right? so we're concerned about having that carboxylic acid and an amine, okay? so whenever we have those and we react it with heat, what's going to happen is we are taking this oh group out and we're going to replace it with nh2.
00:49
Okay, and that one of those hydrogens is also going to get out and mix with oh to make water.
00:57
So i'll try to explain that a little bit more as we go draw our product.
01:04
Okay.
01:06
So we're starting with just having that benzene ring.
01:10
Okay.
01:11
So we have this benzene ring and it has a methyl group.
01:22
It has a methyl group.
01:24
And then we have our carboxylic acid...
