Abstract

Acyl iodides reacted with excess primary and secondary amines in a way similar to acyl chlorides, yielding the corresponding carboxylic acid amide and initial amine hydroiodide. Reactions of tertiary amines with acyl iodides were accompanied by cleavage of the N-C bond with formation of the corresponding N,N-di(hydrocarbyl)carboxamide and alkyl iodide. In the presence of excess tertiary amine the latter was converted into quaternary tetra(hydrocarbyl)ammonium iodide.
