MCQ
Which will not give acetamide on reaction with ammonia
- AAcetic acid
- BAcetyl chloride
- CAcetic anhydride
- ✓Methyl formate
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Methyl formate
d
$a)$. Ammonia gas dissolves in water to form ammonium hydroxide, a base. Ammonium hydroxide then reacts with acetic acid to form ammonium acetate and water.
$a)$. Ammonia gas dissolves in water to form ammonium hydroxide, a base. Ammonium hydroxide then reacts with acetic acid to form ammonium acetate and water.
$b)$. Acetyl chloride reacts violently with a cold concentrated solution of ammonia. A white solid product is formed which is a mixture of acetamide and ammonium chloride.
$c)$. In the reaction between ethanoic anhydride and ammonia, the amide formed is called ethanamide.
when methyl formats and ammonia react it produce formamide; when water is present during this reaction a mixture of formamide and ammonium formate is obtained.
