Question

Why is it necessary to control ph during the reaction of carbonyl compounds with ammonia derivatives?

Answer 1

Here is your answer ⤵⤵⤵⤵

In strongly acidic medium ammonia derivatives being basic will react with acids and will not react with carbonyl compound. In basic medium, OH will attack carbonyl group. Hence pH of a reaction should be carefully controlled.
