Reactions Flashcards
Hydrolysis of Amides

hydrolizing an amide creates a carboxylic acid and an amine;

Hydrolysis of Esters

Produces Carboxylic Acid and an Alcohol

Formation of Esters
Combining Cabaxylic Acid and Alcohol

Results in an Ester and a biproduct of Water

Combine acid chloride (acyl chloride) with an amine.

Resulting in an Amide and a biproduct

Decarboxylation of Caboxylic Acid or (ß-keto acids)

resulting in a ketone and a biproduct

Acid/Base reaction of Carboxylic Acids

resulting in an ester and a biproduct

A ketone with an acid

results in an alcohol

An aldehyde and an acid

you get an alcohol

oxydize an aldehyde

you get a carboxylic acid;

Combine an aldehyde with water and an acid

You get an aldehyde or a ketone

Take a ketone and an acid

you get an hemiacetal or acetal
