One mole of acetyl chloride was mixed with one mole of dimethylamine. After the reaction is complete, what species can be found in the mixture? Draw only the organic structures (i. e., omit inorganic ions). Show charges where necessary.

N,N-dimethylacetamide is formed.

Explanation:

It is an example of a nucleophilic addition-elimination reaction. Here dimethylamine acts as a nucleophile.In the first step, dimethyl amine gives nucleophilic addition reaction at carbonyl center of acetyl chloride.In the second step, removal of Cl atoms occurs.In the third step, deprotonation takes place from amino group to produce N,N-dimethylacetamide.Full reaction mechanism has been shown below.
