Propanamide has the chemical formula CH₃CH₂C=O(NH₂).[1] It is the amide of propanoic acid.

This organic compound is a mono-substituted amide.[2] Organic compounds of the amide group can react in many different organic processes to form other useful compounds for synthesis.

Preparation

Propanamide can be prepared by the condensation reaction between urea and propanoic acid:

${\ce {(NH2)2CO + 2CH3CH2COOH -> CH3CH2CO(NH2) + H2O + CO2}}$

or by the dehydration of ammonium propionate:

${\ce {(NH4)CH3CH2COO -> CH3CH2CONH2 + H2O}}$

Reactions

Propanamide being an amide can participate in a Hoffman rearrangement to produce ethylamine gas.
