Question
**Organic Chemistry Reaction Analysis**

**Question:** Draw the final organic product of the reaction.

**Description of Reaction:**

- **Reactants:**
  - **Reactant 1:** A benzene ring with a carbonyl group attached (C6H5C=O).
  - **Reactant 2:** Ethylamine (CH3CH2NH2).

- **Conditions:** The reaction is performed under heat.

- **Products:** The reaction leads to the formation of water (H2O) and an expected final organic product.

**Details for Students:**

1. **Reactants Overview:**
   - The reactants include a common aromatic ketone and a simple amine.
2. **Reaction Type:**
   - This is a typical nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction where amine attacks the carbonyl carbon.
3. **Expected Mechanism:**
   - The nitrogen in ethylamine attacks the electrophilic carbon of the carbonyl group, leading to the formation of an intermediate tetrahedral structure.
   - Following this, the elimination of a water molecule occurs, resulting in the formation of an imine or amide linkage.
4. **Final Product:**
   - You are expected to draw the structure of an amide formed from the condensation of the amine and the carbonyl group.

By examining the provided reaction scheme, predict and sketch the final product based on the interaction between the given reactants under the specified conditions. Consider the loss of water as a key step in this organic synthesis pathway.
