Benzyl Amine is synthesized from Toluene in two steps;

Step 1: Bromination of Methyl Group in Toluene:
Bromination is carried out on methyl group present on Benzene ring through free radical mechanism by treating toluene with <span>N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) and Benzyl Bromide is formed.

Step 2: Benzyl Bromide into Benzyl Amine;
This step is carried out utilizing a neme reaction "Gabriel Reaction". Benzyl bromide is treated with </span>Potassium Phthalamide and an intermediate is formed which on treatment with Hydrazine produces Benzyl amine.

How would you test a colorless crystalline compound to determine if it was a hydrate?

Cloud [144]

A hydrate is a substance where in it contains water and other constituent elements. To know whether if that compound was a hydrate,you should record its mass, then put it in a test tube and heat it with a Bunsen burner. If the compound is a hydrate, the water in the compound will discharge in the form of water vapor. At the next 5-10 minutes, remove it in the test tube and weigh it up again. If the mass is now fewer, that means that there was water existing that has now evaporated, and the compound was a hydrate.
