  1. Organic chemistry for medicine and biology students Chem 2311 Chapter 11 Amines By Prof. Dr. Adel M. Awadallah Islamic University of Gaza

  2. Physical Properties of Amines

  3. The carbon-nitrogen triple bond is reduced using hydrides to give a primary amine. • For example, with ethanenitrile you get ethylamine • The reduction of nitriles using hydrogen and a metal catalyst

  4. The more ammonia there is in the mixture, the more the forward reaction is favoured..

  5. What do you actually get if you react bromoethane with ammonia? • Whatever you do, you get a mixture of all of the products (including the various amines and their salts) shown on this page. • To get mainly the quaternary ammonium salt, you can use a large excess of bromoethane. If you look at the reactions going on, each one needs additional bromoethane. If you provide enough, then the chances are that the reaction will go to completion, given enough time. • On the other hand, if you use a very large excess of ammonia, the chances are always greatest that a bromoethane molecule will hit an ammonia molecule rather than one of the amines being formed. That will help to prevent the formation of secondary (etc) amines - although it won't stop it entirely

  6. Amines as Bases

  7. Aliphatic amines are stronger bases than aromatic amines because of the resonance in aromatic amines

  8. Electron-donating groups increase the basicity of amines, and electron-withdrawing groups decrease their basicity, and amines are stronger bases than amides

  9. Diazo Dyes
