a) Amonolysis of alkyl halides:
Alkyl halides react with ammonia to form amine and hydrogen halide.
CH3−Cl+NH3→CH3−NH2+HCl
b) i) Ascent of amine series.
CH3CH2NH2+NOCl→CH3CH2Cl+N2+H2O
CH3CH2Cl+NaCN→CH3CH2CN+NaCl
CH3CH2CN+4HLiAlH4−−−−→CH3CH2CH2−NH2
ii) To synthesis amine containing one carbon less than that of in the amide.
CH3CONH2Br2/KOH−−−−−−→CH3NH2
