Examples: synthesis of N-vanillyl nonanamide, also known as synthetic capsaicin; synthesis of benzamide from benzoyl chloride and a phenethylamine; synthesis of flutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogen; acylation of a benzylamine with acetyl chloride (acetic anhydride is an alternative)
Acid–base-catalysed hydrolyses are very common; one example is the hydrolysis of amides or esters. Their hydrolysis occurs when the nucleophile (a nucleus-seeking agent, e.g., water or hydroxyl ion) attacks the carbon of the carbonyl group of the ester or amide. In an aqueous base, hydroxyl ions are better nucleophiles than polar molecules ...
Benzamide is an organic compound with the chemical formula of C 7 H 7 NO. It is the simplest amide derivative of benzoic acid. In powdered form, it appears as a white solid, while in crystalline form, it appears as colourless crystals. [5] It is slightly soluble in water, [2] and soluble in many organic solvents. [6]
The Hinsberg reaction is a chemical test for the detection of primary, secondary and tertiary amines.The reaction was first described by Oscar Hinsberg in 1890. [1] [2] In this test, the amine is shaken well with the Hinsberg reagent (benzenesulfonyl chloride) in the presence of aqueous alkali (either KOH or NaOH).
Alkaline hydrolysis of esters is also known as saponification. A base such as sodium hydroxide is required in stochiometric amounts. Unlike acid-catalyzed ester hydrolysis, it is not an equilibrium reaction and proceeds to completion. Hydroxide ion attacks the carbonyl carbon to give a tetrahedral intermediate, which then expels an alkoxide ion.
A metal ion in aqueous solution or aqua ion is a cation, dissolved in water, of chemical formula [M(H 2 O) n] z+.The solvation number, n, determined by a variety of experimental methods is 4 for Li + and Be 2+ and 6 for most elements in periods 3 and 4 of the periodic table.
Benzaldehyde oxime undergoes Beckmann rearrangement to form benzamide, catalyzed by nickel salts [3] or photocatalyzed by BODIPY. [4] Its dehydration yields benzonitrile. It can be hydrolyzed to regenerate benzaldehyde. [5]
This is followed by hydrolysis, in the example below with methanol, to give a phosphonamidate. Scheme of the Harger reaction Unlike the Curtius rearrangement, there is a choice of R-groups on the phosphinic azide which can migrate.
