We have seen that the alpha carbon atom of an enamine can function as a nucleophile in a Michael reaction, and in fact, enamines can function as nucleophiles in a wide variety of reactions. For example, an enamine will undergo alkylation when treated with an alkyl halide. Draw the structure of intermediate A and the alkylation product B in the following reaction scheme (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1954, 76, 2029-2030): TSOH -H₂O NH A 1) CHgI 2) H₂O+ B + NH Modify the given copy of the starting material to draw compound A. If needed, use the single bond tool to interconvert between double and single bonds.
