Welcome back, everyone. Give the structure of droopy. I mean, now let's recall that amines are derivatives of ammonia and ammonia is NH three. We can simply obtain a means by replacing our hydrogens with alky groups. In this case, the information given to us is that the structure is thy, I mean, and thy as a prefix means two. Now prop is a three membered straight lal chain, right? So we essentially are replacing two hygen with an ammonia with two propylene, right? And we simply want to bond two prophyl groups to nitrogen. So one of them on the left and another on the right. That would be our final structure. Let's label it as our final answer. And thank you for watching.
