Concept introduction: There are three ways of representation of molecular structures. The hashed and wedged formulas have three types of bonds. The bond above the plane is represented by bold hash while bonds behind the plane are represented by wedge. The bonds in plane are represented by normal bonds.

Bond-line formula depicts the zig-zag framework of carbon chain with attached substituents. The terminal position represents a methyl -CH3- while the non-terminal is for methylene -CH2- group. For instance, the propane is written in this notation as follows:

I don't understand why the amide on the top left, with the R attached to one side, doesn't get substituted with OH to form a carboxylic acid.  And if only one can be substituted, why did it choose the amide it chose rather than the other amide?
