C N
• Not to be confused with cyanides (CN- )
• First member is ethanenitrile. Draw the full
structural formula.
• Name the fourth member of the family.
• C N very polar
• Will the C-atom be a nucleophile or
electrophile?
Producing nitriles
• Halagenoalkanes
- heating under reflux with NaCN
or KCN in ethanol
- draw the FSF for 1-bromobutane
and then for the nitrile produced
on reaction with KCN
- what type of reaction is this?
- what is significant about the
length of the carbon chain?

As nucleophiles
- with acid chlorides (acyl chlorides)
1. Find out what an acyl chloride is and draw the
general structure.
2. Draw a reaction mechanism for an acyl
chloride with 3 carbon atoms reacting with
ethylamine.
3. What is this type of reaction called?
4. What type of organic compound is the
product?
AMIDES

Using acid or alkali
This is the same as the second step as when nitriles are
hydrolysed
Using the notation as above, use FSF to draw the
hydrolysis carried out under alkaline conditions
Reactions of amides 2
• DEHYDRATION
Heating an amide with phosphorus(V) oxide
dehydrates the compund.
