MCQ
Which will not give acetamide on reaction with ammonia
  • A
    Acetic acid
  • B
    Acetyl chloride
  • C
    Acetic 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.

$b)$. 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.
