Propionamide Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

white to slightly yellow crystalline powder

Uses

Propionamide was used as adsorbent in the determination of adsorption isotherms of acetamide and propionamide on multi-wall carbon nanotube. It was used in a robust screening method to study biotransformations using (+)-γ-lactamase enzyme.

Definition

ChEBI: A monocarboxylic acid amide obtained by the formal condensation of propionic acid with ammonia.

General Description

Propionamide on γ-irradiation reacts with sulfur dioxide and this reaction has been studied by ESR spectroscopy, gas absorption measurements and X-ray diffraction.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified

Purification Methods

Crystallise it from acetone, *benzene, CHCl3, water or acetone/water, then dry it in a vacuum desiccator over P2O5 or conc H2SO4. [Beilstein 2 H 243, 2 I 108, 2 II 223, 2 III 542, 2 IV 725.]
