Consider each elementary step present in the mechanism of an acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of a nitrile. Draw the organic intermediate after each elementary step. NOTE from Dr. Mahoney: Your mechanism will only cover the hydrolysis of a nitrile to an amide product. It will not cover the conversion of the amide to the final carboxylic acid H30* H2O Step 3 Step 5 Step 4

Designing a Synthesis

Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis that involves the planned construction of organic compounds/molecules from smaller units that possess functional groups. Friedrich Wöhler was the first scientist who designed the synthesis of an organic compound, urea from inorganic starting materials silver cyanate with ammonium chloride via a simple, one-step synthesis.
