RCONH2

Hofmann Reaction : In this reaction acid amide group reacts with Br2 in presence of NaOH or KOH to give primary amin e group. The amine is one carbon less than the parent amide. So, the reaction is known as Hofmann degradation reaction.

R-CONH2Acid amide + Br2 + 4KOH  RNH2primary amine + 2KBr +K2CO3+ 2H2O
