CH3 H₂C-N-CH₂-C-CH₂- CH3 OH The reason that this compound is required in the diet of humans is that it: is part of the coenzyme A molecule. Ohelps fatty acids cross the inner mitochondrial membrane. O is involved in the reoxidation of cytosolic NADH under anaerobic conditions. O is a precursor of one of the most important oxidizing agents in cells. O is part of the flavin adenine dinucleotide molecule.

This reaction involves the following intermediate steps: 1. Addition of phenylhydrazine to the imine and proton transfer to yield intermediate 1; 2. Elimination of ammonia to yield phenylhydrazone 2; 3. Addition of phenylhydrazine to the ketone to yield tetrahedral intermediate 3; 4. Proton transfer yields carbinolamine 4; 5. Elimination of water yields the final product osazone. Write out the mechanism on a separate sh of paper and then draw the structure of tetrahedral intermediate 3.
