Ammonolysis of an ester is a chemical reaction in which an ester reacts with ammonia (or an amine) to produce an amide and an alcohol. This process involves the nucleophilic attack of ammonia on the carbonyl carbon of the ester, leading to the cleavage of the ester bond. The reaction typically requires specific conditions, such as heat or a catalyst, to proceed effectively. Ammonolysis is often used in organic synthesis to produce amides from esters.
