acid catalyzed hydrolysis of nitrile

How will you hydrolyze the nitrile to the carboxylic acid?
Nitriles get hydrolysed with water to yield corresponding carboxylic acid or salt.
The reaction between water and nitrile doesn't occur easily.
Nitrile is heated with dilute acid or alkali for reaction to occur.
The end product will be a carboxylic acid, but its character may vary depending on the reaction conditions.
On hydrolysis, propanenitrile gives propanoic acid.

What is the acidic hydrolysis of nitrile?

What happens when nitriles undergo acid hydrolysis? Under acidic conditions, instead of getting an ammonium salt, carboxylic acid is formed.
For example, Ethanenitrile on getting hydrolysed in hydrochloric acid gives ethanamide in the first step, while ethanoic acid and ammonium chloride in the second step.

What does h2so4 do to a nitrile?

Nitriles can be converted to carboxylic acid with heating in sulfuric acid.
During the reaction an amide intermediate is formed.
Grignard reagents can attack the electophillic carbon in a nitrile to form an imine salt.
This salt can then be hydrolyzed to become a ketone.

Nitriles undergo acid-catalyzed hydrolysis or base-catalyzed hydrolysis to form a carboxylic acid. These reactions proceed via an amide intermediate. The acid-catalyzed mechanism involves the protonation of the nitrogen atom to make the carbon atom more susceptible to nucleophilic attack.
