Measures of Basicity
Amines
Chemical / Biological / Neurological
Activity
• The basicity of amines may be measured
and compared by using any of these values:
•
1) Kb
•
2) pK b
•
3) Ka of conjugate acid
•
4) pK a of conjugate acid
Basicity Constant (Kb) and pKb
• Kb is the equilibrium constant for the
reaction:

CH3CH2NH3+ is a weaker acid than NH4+;
therefore, CH3CH2NH2 is a stronger base
than NH3.

Basicity of Arylamines
Effect of Substituents on Basicity of Arylamines
•1. Alkyl groups on the ring increase basicity, but
only slightly (less than 1 pK unit).
•2. Electron withdrawing groups, especially ortho
and/or para to amine group, decrease basicity
and can have a large effect.
