Chapter 24.6, Problem 9P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To write the mechanism of the last step in Gabriel amine synthesis, the basepromoted hydrolysis of a phthalimide to yield an amine plus phthalate ion.

Concept introduction:

An imide (-CoNHCo-) is similar to a β- keto ester, in that the acidic N-H hydrogen is flanked by two carbonyl groups.

Blurred answer

Which carbocation is more stable?
Are the products of the given reaction correct?  Why or why not?
The question below asks why the products shown are NOT the correct products.  I asked this already, and the person explained why those are the correct products, as opposed to what we would think should be the correct products.  That's the opposite of what the question was asking.  Why are they not the correct products? A reaction mechanism for how we arrive at the correct products is requested ("using key intermediates").  In other words, why is HCl added to the terminal alkene rather than the internal alkene?
