BabcockHall Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Going on memory here, but I think that the hydration of a nitrile to an amide is done under fairly mild conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypervalent_iodine Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 It's possible to get both. Which one do you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
