Question
Chapter 17, Problem 31P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The detailed mechanisms of acidic and basic hydrolyses of propanamide are to be discussed.
Concept introduction:
A mechanism involves the collection of all those steps that occur in a reaction.
An amide bond contains a carbonyl group bonded to an amino group. The amide bond is a reaction product of
The hydrolysis of amide group in an acidic medium results in the formation of carboxylic acid and ammonium ions while, in a basic medium, it results in the formation of carboxylate ion and ammonia.
