Extraction of amide and amine
« on: November 28, 2012, 11:37:50 AM »
How to separate 1-octanamide and 1-octanamine?
It is extraction. In the answer they added HCl so they got a salt of the 1-octanamine, while 1-octanamide doesn't react. Why it doesn't react (no acid hydrolysis)?

You will need to heat it to hydrolyse the amide.
