Esters can react to form either amides or carboxylates Follows same nucleophilic reaction pathway as seen with other carboxylic acid derivatives O O O O O

With heat and an acid catalyst, an amide can be hydrolyzed to produce a carboxylic acid and an amine (or ammonia) A specific example of this reaction is the hydrolysis of N-methylpropanamide

Where the reaction had gone to 100 conversion, the reaction mixture was passed through a short plug of silica to remove the catalyst; otherwise the amides were
