Chapter 23, Problem 102GQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The equation has to be written for the polymerization of H2NCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2COOH to give Nylon-6.

Concept introduction:

The amides are synthesized by condensation reaction of a carboxylic acid and an amine. Amide bond can be hydrolysed to get the starting materials from which an amide is synthesized.

The given amide is a polymer known an Nylon-6 which is made up of H2NCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2COOH by condensation reaction.

Shown below is the mechanism presented for the formation of biasplatin in reference 1 from the Background and Experiment document. The amounts used of each reactant are shown.  Either draw or describe a better alternative to this mechanism. (Note that the first step represents two steps combined and the proton loss is not even shown; fixing these is not the desired improvement.)  (Hints: The first step is correct, the second step is not; and the amount of the anhydride is in large excess to serve a purpose.)
Hi I need help on the question provided in the image.
