Which of the following name reaction used to form Amines through amides?
Correct answer: C. Hoffmannbromamide
- A. cannizaro
- B. Claisen
- C. Hoffmannbromamide
- D. Schmidt
Explanation
The Hofmann-Bromamide reaction is a chemical reaction used to convert primary amides to primary amines. The reaction involves the reaction of a primary amide with bromine in the presence of a strong base, such as sodium or potassium hydroxide, to form an isocyanate intermediate. The isocyanate intermediate then undergoes hydrolysis to form a primary amine.

About Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are named and related to their carbon-halogen structure, polarity and reactivity. The key reactions are nucleophilic substitution by SN1 and SN2 mechanisms and elimination by E1 and E2 mechanisms, including how substrate structure, nucleophile, base, solvent and temperature influence substitution versus elimination.
