Structure for Y looks OK. Now how do amides hydrolyse?
What products do you obtain?

Thanks! I figured it out.

I think the clue here is 3H2. What else in your molecule can be reduced by hydrogen?

Ah, so the phenyl group would be hydrogenated to cyclohexane and the carbonyl group would remain? Then, when (Y) is hydrolyzed, the water molecule will replace the carbonyl group to form (Z), correct?
