1. Amines

⑴ Overview

① Definition: Derivatives of NH3

② Nomenclature

○ Add “amine” after the corresponding alkane carbon number

○ For 2nd and 3rd amines, substitute groups attached to other nitrogen atoms are named with N - prefixed

○ Amine substituents are denoted by “amino-“

③ Boiling Point

○ Hydrogen bonding is possible between primary and secondary amines

○ Boiling and melting points of tertiary amines are lower than those of primary or secondary amines: Tertiary amines cannot form intramolecular hydrogen bonds themselves

○ Boiling points of amines are relatively lower compared to alcohols with similar molecular weight: Due to lower electronegativity of nitrogen

○ Boiling point of trimethylamine > boiling point of triethylamine: Alkyl groups hinder intermolecular forces

○ Boiling point of triethylamine < boiling point of triethylphosphine: Polarizability is more important than electronegativity

④ Acidity

○ Comparison of amine basicity in the gaseous state: Tertiary > Secondary > Primary amines (Due to the electron-donating alkyl groups enhancing amine’s basicity)

○ Comparison of amine basicity in aqueous solutions: Secondary > Tertiary > Primary amines (Considering stabilizing effects from solvents)

○ pKa of alkyl amine conjugate acids is around 10-11

○ pKa of aryl amine conjugate acids is around 4-5

○ Basicity of aryl amines

○ Basicity of heterocyclic amines

Figure 6. Hofmann elimination reaction of amines


(Formula 1) Conversion of amine to a good leaving group, i.e. trimethylamine, using 1. excess CH3I, base, 2. Ag2O, H2O, Δ conditions, followed by elimination reaction.

(Formula 2) Formation of alkene with smaller substituents

○ Zaitsev’s rule: Highly substituted alkenes are major products in elimination reactions due to alkene stability

○ Hofmann’s rule: Less substituted alkenes are major products in elimination reactions due to steric effects

○ Hofmann Elimination Reaction: When the substituent is a quaternary ammonium or tertiary sulfonium ion, the Hofmann product is the major product upon elimination

⑦ Cope Elimination Reaction

○ Hofmann Elimination Reaction is based on the E2 elimination reaction. Hofmann Elimination Reaction is based on the E2 elimination reaction. It proceeds through a stereospecific anti-periplanar mechanism.

○ Cope Elimination Reaction involves a pentagonal transition state

○ Treatment of tertiary amines with peroxides results in syn elimination of amine and formation of amine oxide

⑺ Synthesis Methods

① Haber-Bosch Process

○ Industrial production of ammonia

○ Preparing N2: H2 in a 1:3 ratio

Reaction 1: Air equilibrium: N2:O2 = 78%:21%

Reaction 2: Methane oxidation: 2CH4 + O2 → 2CO + 4H2

Reaction 3: Methane oxidation: CH4 + H2O → CO + 3H2

Reaction 4: Reaction with vapor: CO + H2O → CO2 + H2

○ By combining these reactions, a N2 to H2 molar ratio of 1:3 can be achieved

○ Haber-Bosch Process

○ Catalyst: Iron powder
