New cards

How are amines produced?

Halogenoalkane with NH3 in ethanol heated under pressure

2
New cards

How can nitriles be produced

Alkene heated with ethanolic KCN

Nucelophilic substitution

3
New cards

How are hydroxynitriles produced

Reaction of aldehydes and ketones with HCN, KCN catalyst and heat

4
New cards

Acid hydrolysis of nitriles

Hydrolysis by dilute acid results in the formation of a carboxylic acid and ammonium salt

5
New cards

Alkaline hydrolysis of nitriles

  • Hydrolysis by dilute alkali results in the formation of a sodium carboxylate salt and ammonia; Acidification is required to change the carboxylate ion into a carboxylic acid
