Question

 Identify and describe mistake(s) in the following structures.

The image displays three chemical structures labeled as a), b), and c).

a) The chemical structure is a ketone with a five-carbon chain. The second carbon is connected to an oxygen atom double-bonded (forming a carbonyl group). Additionally, this carbon is bonded to two methyl groups, making it a tert-butyl group.

b) This structure depicts an amine with a six-carbon chain. The second carbon in the chain is bonded to a nitrogen atom that bears one hydrogen, forming a secondary amine. The same carbon is bonded to two methyl groups, forming a tert-butyl group.

c) This structure shows a compound with a seven-carbon chain featuring an amine. The nitrogen atom is bonded to a methyl group and the carbon chain. Additionally, there is a double bond within the chain between the second and third carbon. The second carbon is also bonded to two methyl groups, forming a tert-butyl group, and the third carbon is bonded to a methyl group.
