Interpretation:
To arrange the given amides in decreasing order of reactivity towards acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction.
Concept introduction:
The normal reaction of an amide with water does not give good yield of product. As amides are least reactive
The reaction of water and amides in presence of acid gives a carboxylic acid as a product. The reaction eqaution is written as,
The reactivity of amide also depends upon the leaving tendency of amine part from acyl group. The weaker the base better will be the leaving group. The basicity of

- 2) Predict the products formed when the following amides are treated with bromine and sodium hydroxide (Hoffman Reaction). a) PHCH2CH2CONH2 b) NH2CO(CH2)4CONH2 NH2 c)arrow_forwardWhat products are formed when all of the amide and ester bonds are hydrolyzed in each of the following compounds? Tamiu [part (a)] is the trade name of the antiviral agent oseltamivir, thought to be the most effective agent in treating inuenza. Aspartame [part (b)] is the articial sweetener used in Equal and many diet beverages. One of the products ofthis hydrolysis reaction is the amino acid phenylalanine. Infants afflicted with phenylketonuria cannot metabolize this amino acid, so it accumulates, causing mental retardation. When the affliction is identied early, a diet limiting the consumption of phenylalanine (and compounds like aspartame that are converted to it) can make a normal life possible.arrow_forwardIndicate whether the following statement is true or false. Aliphatic amines are more basic than ammonia, whereas aromatic amines are less basic than ammonia.RightFalsearrow_forward
- What carboxylic acid and amine are needed to synthesize the pain reliever phenacetin? Phenacetin was once a component of the over-the-counter pain reliever APC (aspirin, phenacetin, caffeine), but it is no longer used because of its kidney toxicity.arrow_forwardWhat products are formed when all of the amide and ester bonds arehydrolyzed in each of the following compounds? Tamiflu [part (a)] is the trade name of the antiviral agent oseltamivir, thought to be the most effective agent in treating influenza. Aspartame [part (b)] is the artificial sweetener used in Equal and many diet beverages. One of the products of this hydrolysis reaction is the amino acid phenylalanine. Infants afflicted with phenylketonuria cannot metabolize this amino acid, so it accumulates, causing mental retardation. When the affliction is identified early, a diet limiting the consumption of phenylalanine (and compounds like aspartame that are converted to it) can make a normal life possible.arrow_forwardExplain why the boiling point of propanamide, CH3CH2CONH2, is considerably higher than the boiling point of N,Ndimethylformamide, HCON(CH3)2 (213 °C vs. 153 °C), even though both compounds are isomeric amides.arrow_forward
