Hoffmann bromamidereaction involves conversion of a carboxylic acid amide into an amine with a loss of a carbon atom on treatment with aqueous sodium hypobromite. Thus Hoffmann result in shortening of a carbon chain. R=overset(O)overset(||)C-NH_(2)underset(NaOH)overset(Br_(2))rarrR-NH_(2)+NaBr+Na_(2)CO_(3) Mechanism of the reaction is : Product (A) :
