Ammonium Benzoate

Example. Heat under reflux 0 5 g. of ammonium benzoate and 1 5 ml. of benzylamine for 1 hour. Shake with water to remove unchanged benzylamine and filter off the benzylamide. Recrystallise from ethanol m.p., 105 . 

A.mmonium ben ate [1863-63-41], C H COONH, mp, 198°C. This is a dull white powder which gradually loses ammonia on exposure to air. Its aqueous solution, it is slightly acidic. Ammonium benzoate has been suggested as a component in certain mbber formulations (40) and as a preservative in paints and glues.

Many of these salts melt or sublime before or during decomposition and reaction temperatures generally increase with molar mass. Thermal analyses for a selection of ammonium carboxylates have been given by Erdey et al. [915] who conclude that the base strength of the anion increases with temperature until it reaches that of NH3. Decompositions of ammonium acetate (>333 K) and ammonium oxalate (>473 K) proceed through amide formation. Ammonium benzoate and ammonium salicylate sublime (>373 K) without decomposition but ammonium citrate decomposes (>423 K) to yield some residual carbon. 

FIGURE 3.5 Fourier Transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of acrylic rubber (ACM)-siUca hybrid nanocomposites. The numbers after ACM (10 and 50) indicate the wt% tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) concentration. The letters preceding the numbers indicate the ACM-silica samples cross-linked from benzoyl peroxide (B) and a mixed cross-linker hexamethylene diamine carbamate and ammonium benzoate (D). The numbers over the absorption peaks are the wave numbers corresponding to absorbance of those peaks. (From Bandyopadhyay, A., Bhowmick, A.K., and De Sarkar, M., J. Appl. Polym.

The conversion of a carboxylic acid to a salt can serve as confirmation of the acid structure. This is conveniently done by the addition of a tertiary aliphatic amine, such as triethylamine, to a solution of the carboxylic acid in chloroform (no reaction occurs in CC14). The carboxylate ion thus formed shows the two characteristic carbonyl absorption bands in addition to an ammonium band in the 2700-2200 cm-1 region. The O—H stretching band, of course, disappears. The spectrum of ammonium benzoate, Figure 3.24, demonstrates most of these features.

The Pt electrode (area 0.23 cm2) was preanodized at +1.8 V versus SCE for 2 min prior to each voltammogram scan rate 0.1 V s-1.

Curtin et. al. W exposed benzoic acid crystals to ammonia gas and generated ammonium benzoate. As shown In Figure 7, the (101) faces of the crystals become opaque while the (001) faces remain clear. The resistance of molecules at the (001) faces to reaction with ammonia Is explainable by the relatively unexposed carboxyl groups within this region.
