(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A mechanism corresponding to the hydrolysis of N,N-dimethylacetamide under basic condition is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The basic hydrolysis of an amide comprises of three steps. The first step is the addition of the nucleophile. The second step is the elimination of the leaving group. The third step is the proton transfer.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A mechanism corresponding to the hydrolysis of N,N-dimethylacetamide under acidic condition is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The mechanism of acidic hydrolysis of an amide comprises two stages. The first half is an acid catalyzed addition of the nucleophile (water). The second half is an acid catalyzed elimination of the leaving group.
