Chapter 15, Problem 15.43P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

In Section 15.5c, we learned that the frequency of the C=O stretch for an amide is lower than it is for a ketone, suggesting that the C=O bond is weaker in an amide. This weakening of the C=O bond can be explained by the significant contribution from one of its resonance structures toward the resonance hybrid. The resonance structure for N, N-dimethylacetamide [CH3CON(CH3)2] is to be drawn and how it accounts for the weakening of the C=O bond is to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The lone pair on nitrogen atom can take part in resonance with C=O bond in amide. The C-O single bond is weaker than C=O bond. The C-O single bond character decreases the stiffness of C=O bond. The stretching frequency of C=O band lowers by the Weakening of C=O bond.
