Study Notes
Class 12 Chemistry Chapter 13 Amines
Classification of Amines
- Primary amines: (i) CH₃NH₂, (ii) C₆H₅NH₂
- Secondary amines: (iii) (C₂H₅)₂NH
- Tertiary amines: (iv) (C₂H₅)₃N
Isomeric Amines
- Eight isomeric amines are possible with the molecular formula C₄H₁₁N
- Types of isomerism exhibited by different amines: structural isomerism
Conversion of Compounds
- Benzene into aniline: nitration of benzene followed by reduction
- Benzene into N,N-dimethylaniline: methylation of aniline
- Cl-(CH₂)₄-Cl into Hexane-1,6-diamine: reduction of the haloalkane
Basic Strength of Amines
- Basic character of amines linked to availability of lone electron pair on the nitrogen atom
- Factors affecting basic strength: +I effect, steric hindrance, and delocalization
- pKb value: related to Kb as pKb = -log Kb
Acid-Base Reactions
- CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₂ + HCl →
- (C₂H₅)₃N + HCl →
Alkylation of Aniline
- Reaction of aniline with excess of methyl iodide in the presence of sodium carbonate solution
Reaction of Aniline with Benzoyl Chloride
- Formation of an amide
Isomers of C₃H₉N
- Four structural isomers are possible
- IUPAC names of the isomers:
- 1° amine: CH₃CH₂NH₂
- 1° amine: (CH₃)₂CHNH₂
- 2° amine: CH₃NHCH(CH₃)₂
- 3° amine: (CH₃)₃CNH₂
