13. Amides, Anilides<br />
The moisture content <strong>of</strong> amides and anilides can be measured easily<br />
using standard methods. Amides behave in the same way as weakbasicity<br />
amines. Both volumetric and coulometric titration can be used.<br />
For volumetric titration, use either a general-use or an oil-type<br />
dehydrated solvent, depending on the solubility <strong>of</strong> the sample.<br />
In the case <strong>of</strong> coulometric titration, the sample is added directly to the<br />
electrolyte (anolyte).<br />
