The conjugate base of an acid, HCL, is Cl- and the conjugate acid of the base, Cl-, is HCL. How can Cl- be a base when it looses a H+ ion from it? Doesn't it suppose to accept a H+ in order to be a base? I think I'm looking at it differently.
The conjugate base is a salt and is water soluble; therefore, it is removed from the organic solvent layer. Reacidification of this basic aqueous layer will regenerate the organic acid, which will precipitate from the aqueous solution due to the acid's limited solubility in water. Figure 2 Caffeine is an amine; therefore, it has a basic nitrogen that will react with a proton source such as hydrochloric acid.
