Concept introduction:
The synthesis of primary amine is done by using phthalimide and primary alkyl halide in presence of hydroxide base. The important point for this reaction is the phthalimide group has only one hydrogen atom which is attached to nitrogen and can be replaced by alkyl group. Therefore, only one alkyl group can be substitued to the nitrogen atom and so only primary amine will form as the product. The general reaction equation is written as,

Write the mechanism for the following reactions:1. the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an imine to a carbonyl compound and a primary amine2. the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an enamine to a carbonyl compound and a secondary amine b. How do the two mechanisms differ?arrow_forwardIn the 1880's, Acetanilide, sold under the name Antifebrin, was widely used as a pain reliever and fever reducer. However, it had many adverse side effects, including cyanosis as a result of methemoglobinemia. The toxic side effects were the result of a small portion of acetanilide being hydrolyzed to aniline. Acetanilide was discontinued and replaced with phenacetin. Later studies show that both acetanilide and phenacetin are metabolized to acetaminophen. This metabolite, which we know as Tylenol, is responsible for the analgesic and antipyretic properties.
