4:00 - 4:27 If the OH- take up the H+ ions from the the diCarboxylic acid then wouldn't you make 2nH20. As nH20 was used to break up the amide linkage and 2nH20 were produced does that means we would have produced nH20. I'm very confused about this please help.
By any chance would you know if this is not the AQA spec? There’s nothing about this in the books but when I do exam questions, questions about this show up. Thanks.
Not sure but would the Lone pair on O atom in H20 be attracted to C=O and then nucleophilic addition-elimination would occur and the Electrons would be repelled back to O in C=O making C-O-ve and then that O in C-O-ve would reform the double bond to make back the C=O which would kick out the phenyl amine to the right of the C=O bond. That's how you would make your products.
Amazing explanation, clear and concise and helped me discern the differences between heats role and the waters role in the reaction!
amazing video, thank you. God Bless
Thank you! You too!
Machemguy, i have no words to thankyou you❤️
Brace Love Er, you just did. Thanks!

Do you have to add another H+ to the amine groups to get the mark in the exam? At 2:23
yep definitely
what effect does the water molecule have in the base hydrolysis of the polyamide? 5:05

finally understand this! thank you!
Divergent11 tris Glad to hear it!!
Thanks I was looking for these reactions.Thank You!!!
Do you have a video on the Arrhenius equation?
Morgan Lane Not yet. I've had quite a few people asking so may have to do it sooner than planned. Will tweet when done
MaChemGuy thanks for letting me know, I'll be on the lookout :)
Helloo, do I need to heat under reflux when preparing amides just like I need heat under reflux to break the amide link?
Great vid
Fantastic
soooo helpful thanks
You're welcome!
more detailed with mechanisms of how electrons move would have been great
