Conversion of amines
Asked by Sudamkalgunde624 | 31 Dec, 2019, 11:38: AM
Conversion of Amines:
1. Acylation reaction
- Aliphatic and aromatic primary and secondary amines (which contain replaceable hydrogen atoms) react with acid chlorides, anhydrides and esters to form substituted amide.
- The process of introducing an acyl group (R–CO–) into the molecule is called acylation.
- The reaction is carried out in the presence of a stronger base than the amine, such as pyridine, which removes HCl formed and shifts the equilibrium to the product side.
2. Carbylamine reaction
- On heating aliphatic and aromatic primary amines with chloroform and ethanolic KOH they form isocyanides or carbylamines which have foul odour.
- Secondary and tertiary amines do not show this reaction.
- This reaction is used as a test for primary amines.
