Aliphatic and aromatic primary amines on heating with chloroform and ethanolic potassium hydroxide form isocyanides or carbylamines which are foul smelling substances.
Secondary and tertiary amines do not show this reaction. Another name of this reaction is Isocyanide test which is used as a test for primary amines.
