Structure and bonding in amines Chiral carbon Chiral nitrogen?
Pyramidal inversion in amines fast sp3 sp3 sp2 (planar) Energy barrier: 6 kcal/mol (25 kJ/mol) at room temp.
Hydrogen bonding of amines Not possible for tertiary amines Hydrogen bonds are also formed with water Amines with fewer than 5 carbons are water-soluble
Basicity of amines Because of nitrogen lone pair amines are both basic and nucleophilic An amine (a Lewis base) An acid A salt Amines are much more basic than alcohols, ethers, or water.
Basicity of amines Deprotonation of amine salt by water is used as measure of amine basicity Stronger acid (lower pKa value) Weaker conjugated base Weaker acid (higher pKa value) Stronger conjugated base pKa = -log Ka Ka = Keq[H2O] = [H3O+][RNH2]/[RNH3+]
Note the diference in basicity of amine and amide nitrogen Amides are completely nonbasic Resonance stabilization of amide
After amide protonation No resonance stabilization Inductive destabilization of the positive charge

Quaternary ammonium salts in Phase Transfer Catalysis How it works? H2O + Na+ HO- R4N+ Cl- Aqueous phase H2O + Na+ HO- + Cl- + R4N+ CHCl3 + cyclohexene CHCl3 + cyclohexene + R4N+ HO- Organic phase
Quaternary ammonium salts in Phase Transfer Catalysis Examples:
Naturally Occurring Amines Alkaloids Cinchona flower Quinine (antimalarial)
Naturally Occurring Amines Alkaloids Reserpine (antihypertensive) Rauwolfia serpentina
Naturally Occurring Amines Alkaloids Morphine (an analgesic) Papaver somniferum
Morphine Alkaloids Heroin – not found in nature
Morphine derivatives Codeine – found in nature (analgesic, antitussive) Nalorphine – synthetic analgesic, morphine antagonist
„Morphine Rule” (Structural requirements necessary for biological activity) Quaternary carbon linked to phenyl ring, and two carbon chain bondedtotertiary amino group QSAR –quantitative structure-activity relationship
