The nucleophilic character of amines: Mechanism of the reaction on acid chlorides
- Nucleophilic attack of amine (II) on acid chloride (I):
- Departure of the chloride ion:
- The amine base captures a proton and thus releases the substituted amide(III)
- Departure of the chloride ion:
- The amine base captures a proton and thus releases the substituted amide(III)
