What amine is formed by reduction of each amide?

a.

b.

c.

Amine and amide are the nitrogen containing functional groups. The amine is represented as NH₂ and the amide is represented as CONH₂.

The reduction of amide into amine is completed by the action of reagent lithium aluminum hydride LiAlH₄.

The gives hydrogen to the carbonyl carbon of amide and, therefore, it gives amine.

Primary ($1°$) , secondary ($2°$), and tertiary ($3°$) amides are reduced to$1°,2°\mathrm{and}3°$amines, respectively using LiAlH₄.

a. The given compound is primary amide; therefore, it gives primary amine as:

Conversion of amide a to amine

b. The given compound is tertiary amide; therefore, it gives tertiary amine as:

Conversion of amide b to amine

c.The given compound is secondary amide; therefore, it gives secondary amine as:

Conversion of amide c to amine
