Amines

Substituted Amines
Amines are nitrogen containing functional groups that can be substituted to form
primary, secondary and tertiary structures.

N Cl

Lone Pairs & Quaternary Amines
Most amines are characterized by a lone pair that plays a major part in amine
chemistry (such as hydrogen bonding and basicity).
A fourth group can bond to nitrogen to form a quaternary ammonium ion,
which is positively charged and helps form ionic compounds.

Primary alkyl amines are named by identifying the alkyl group attached to nitrogen and adding the
suffix “amine” to the alkyl group name.
Amine Nomenclature: Primary
N CCH
CH3
CH3H
H3C
H3CH N
5
For secondary and tertiary amines with the same substituents, add the appropriate prefix, di- or tri-,
to the alkyl group name.
Identically Substituted Amines
diisopropylamine triethylamine
6
Differently Substituted Amines
When the R groups in a 2° and 3° amine are different, the compounds are named as N-substituted
derivatives of a 1° amine.
The parent compound is chosen as the 1° amine that contains the largest of R group.
7
When NH2 is a substituent on the main chain, it is called an amino group.

Properties of Amines: Basicity
The lone electron pair on the nitrogen of amines causes them to be weak Bronsted-Lowry bases by forming a
bond with a hydrogen from an acid or water.NH2 + HBr
N+ HCl
H2N + NaOH

Properties of Amines: Boiling Points
Primary and secondary amines have higher boiling points to comparable alkanes due to
hydrogen bonding.
Tertiary alkanes have lower boiling points than alcohols or other amines of similar MW due to the
lack of hydrogens on nitrogen.

! Heterocycle: A ring that contains nitrogen or some other atom in addition to carbon.
! Heterocycles are common in many natural compounds found in plants and animals.

!Quaternary ammonium ions have four organic groups bonded to the nitrogen atom. Their structures in solution are unaffected by changes in pH.
!Benzalkonium chlorides have both antimicrobial and detergent properties. They are used in surgical scrubs and for sterile storage of instruments.

! Many alkaloids are physiologically active. ! Caffeine and nicotine are stimulants. ! Others are notable as pain relievers (analgesics), as
sleep inducers, and for the euphoric states they can create.
