Question

Why is Gabriel pthalamide synthesis preferred for synthesis of primary amines?

Answer 1

Dear Student, Gabriel thalamide is the process of getting primary amines in the pure form.

By this method we can get primary amine in pure form and hence prefer it for its preparation.

the Pthalamide part prevent the formation of 2-degree and 3-degreeamine hence we get pure 1-degree amine and not a mixture.
