Could you have a reaction between a carboxylic acid and an amine with a catalyst but without heating? (You need a reagent other than a catalyst, such as a carbodiimid derivative. - GS). Conversely, what about without a catalyst but with heating? Would these yield different answers if there is only one not both? (Either heat or a coupling reagent will produce an amide. - GS).
This blog is a learning resource for undergraduate students studying organic chemistry. It consists of a database of actual questions and answers about organic chemistry collected by a chemistry professor teaching the subject.
