Presentation Transcript

  1. Chapter 18 Amines and Amides 18.5Hydrolysis of Amides

  2. Hydrolysis of Amides Amides undergo acid hydrolysis base hydrolysis to form to form carboxylic acid salt of carboxylic acid and an ammonium salt and an amine or ammonia

  3. Acid Hydrolysis of Amides Acid hydrolysis of an amide • involves an acid and water • produces the carboxylic acid and the ammonium salt

  4. Base Hydrolysis of Amides Base hydrolysis of an amide • involves a base and water • produces the salt of the carboxylic acid and the amine

  5. Learning Check Write the equation for the hydrolysis of N-ethylpropanamide with NaOH.

  6. Solution Write the equation for the hydrolysis of N-ethylpropanamide with NaOH.
