Alkyl Amines and Aryl Amines
• Much of their chemistry is similar
• Differences are substantial
Spring, 2010
4
Nomenclature
• Primary Amines
– Add the word amine to the akyl substituent
H3C
NH2
methyl amine
– Replace e with suffix “amine” in parent
NH2
cyclopentanamine
– Use “amino” as substituent when two
functional groups are present
COOH
o-aminobenzoic acid

Properties of Amines
• Similar to ammonia
• sp3 hybridized N
• Tetrahedral geometry
• Can be chiral
• Generally not resolvable
• due to pyramidal inversion process
• Barrier to inversion is ~25kJ/mol

Properties

•
•
Amines with < 5 carbons are water soluble
Readily hydrogen bond
Highly associated structures
Higher boiling points than alkanes of similar MW
Low MW amines have distinctive fish-like odor
Pentane-1,5-diamine (cadaverine) has disgusting
odor

Industrial Applications
• Insecticides
• Pharmaceuticals

Basicity of Amines
• Nitrogen has lone pair of electrons
• Dominates chemistry of amines
• Basic and nucleophilic
– React with acids accepting a proton
– React with alkyl halides
• Stronger bases than alcohols and ethers
• Kb values indicate base strength
• Large Kb (small pKb) indicates stronger base
• Generally consider the pKa of ammonium salt

Basicity
• Aryl amines are less basic than alkyl amines
• The N in amides are non-basic
• Poor nucleophile as well
• Primary and secondary amines are acidic as well
• pKa value is approximately 40
Spring, 2010
16
Basicity
• Aryl amines are less basic because the lone
pair is often delocalized in the aromatic ring
• Substituents on ring can make the nitrogen
•
•
more or less basic
Electron donating groups increase basicity
Electron withdrawing groups decrease
basicity

• Reaction proceeds via the imine
• NH3, primary and secondary amines work

Reactions of Amines
• Alkylation and Acylation of Amines
• Most general reactions
• Fully covered elsewhere

21
Reactions of Amines
• Hoffmann Elimination
• Alkene formation
• NH2 is poor leaving group
• Reaction requires making it a better LG
• Hoffmann Elimination coverts amine into
quaternary ammonium salt by reacting
with CH3I

Aromatic Substitution of Amines
• Friedal-Crafts akylation
• Does not work with amines
• Fridal-Crafts acylation
• Does not work with amines
• Amides provide less reactive alternative to
amines which allow substitution to occur

• Amide provides
– Less activating, o,p directing substituent
– Readily removed if needed using aqueous
base
