Amines, reactions
Amines are similar to ammonia in their reactions.
Like ammonia, amines are basic.
Like ammonia, amines are nucleophilic and react with
alkyl halides, acid chlorides, and carbonyl compounds.
The aromatic amines are highly reactive in electrophilic
aromatic substitution.
Amine, reactions:
1. As bases
2. Alkylation
3. Reductive amination
4. Conversion into amides
5. EAS
6. Hofmann elimination from quarternary
ammonium salts
7. Reactions with nitrous acid
1. As bases
a) with acids

Why are aliphatic amines more basic than ammonia?
NH3 + H2O  NH4+ + OHR-NH2 + H2O  R-NH3+ + OH-
The alkyl group, -R, is an electron donating group.
The donation of electrons helps to stabilize the ammonium
ion by decreasing the positive charge, lowering the ΔH,
shifting the ionization farther to the right and increasing the
basicity.

Electron donating groups will stabilize the anilinium ion,
decreasing the ΔH, shifting the ionization farther to the right and
making the compound a stronger base.
Electron withdrawing groups destabilize the anilinium ion,
increasing the ΔH, shifting the ionization towards the reactants,
making the compound a weaker base.

-OR

p-nitrosocompound
note: 90% of all tested nitrosamines are carcinogenic in man.
Many nitrosamine cancers are organ specific. For example,
dimethylnitrosamine causes liver cancer while the nitrosamines
in tobacco smoke cause lung cancer.
Sodium nitrite (“cure”) is used as a preservative in meats such
as bacon, bologna, hot dogs, etc. to kill the organism
responsible for botulism poisoning. In the stomach, the nitrous
acid produced from sodium nitrite can react with secondary
and tertiary amines to form nitrosamines. To reduce the
formation of nitrosamines, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is now
added to foods cured with sodium nitrite.
Nitrosamines are also found in beer!
