General Description
Colorless crystals.
Air & Water Reactions
Slightly soluble in water.
Reactivity Profile
HEXANAMIDE is an amide. Amides/imides react with azo and diazo compounds to generate toxic gases. Flammable gases are formed by the reaction of organic amides/imides with strong reducing agents. Amides are very weak bases (weaker than water). Imides are less basic yet and in fact react with strong bases to form salts. That is, they can react as acids. Mixing amides with dehydrating agents such as P2O5 or SOCl2 generates the corresponding nitrile. The combustion of these compounds generates mixed oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Can react with mineral acids and bases.
Fire Hazard
Flash point data are not available for HEXANAMIDE, but HEXANAMIDE is probably combustible.
Purification Methods
Recrystallise the amide from hot water. [Beilstein 2 H 324, 2 I 141, 2 II 286, 2 III 732.]
