Question

why is ammonolysis of the alkyl halide not a suitable method for preparation of primary amine​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Ammonolysis of alkyl halides leads to the formation of mixture of primary, secondary, tertiary amines along with the quaternary salts. ... Thus such a reaction would form a mixture of all the four compounds and it will be difficult to get the prue amine

Answer 2

1.Ammonolysis is not a suitable method to prepare primary amines from alkyl halides.This is because a mixture of primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary amines are produced by this reaction.

2.This is because this primary amine formed again acts as a base and keep on reacting with the alkyl halide untill all of the hydrogen atoms of amine gets replaced with alkyl groups.

3.Formation  of  mixture of all the four compounds and it will be difficult to get the prue amine

Explanation:

1.Ammonolysis  is the process of forming amines using, as amminating agents, ammonia or primary and secondary amines.

2.These reactions may also include hydroammonolysis in which amines are formed directly from carbonyl compounds using an ammonia-hydrogen mixture and a hydrogenation catalyst.

3.For example, the ammonolysis of chloroethane yields a substituted ammonium salt.
