Chemistry of Amines by Andrea Delcid https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf Chemistry Project en-us 2022-05-19 00:09:55 UTC 2022-05-19 01:58:57 UTC hello@padlet.com Definition adelcid3004 https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190319766 An amine is generally a functional group with a nitrogen atom having a lone pair. Amines resemble ammonia structurally where nitrogen can bond up to 3 hydrogen atoms. It is also characterized by various properties that are based on carbon connectivity.]]> 2022-05-19 00:14:19 UTC https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190319766 adelcid3004 https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190338068 2022-05-19 00:30:14 UTC https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190338068 Physical Properties adelcid3004 https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190350218
  • The lower aliphatic amines are gaseous in nature. They have a fishy smell.
  • Primary amines with three or four carbon atoms are liquids at room temperature whereas higher ones are solids.
  • Aniline and other arylamines are generally colourless.
  • Lower aliphatic amines can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
  • Higher amines are insoluble in water. Organic solvents like alcohol, benzene and ether readily dissolve amines.
  • Alcohols have higher polarity as compared to amines and hence, they form stronger intermolecular hydrogen bonds.

  • It is used in water purification, medicine manufacturing and development of insecticides and pesticides.

  • Serotonin is an important amine that functions as one of the primary neurotransmitters. It controls the feelings of hunger and is critical for the speed with which the brain operates in general.
  • Pain-relieving medicines such as Morphine and Demerol which are also known as analgesics are made from amines.

Therefore, reacting primary amines with nitrous acid leads to a mixture of alcohol, alkenes, and alkyl halides.]]> 2022-05-19 01:03:13 UTC https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190378306 Interesting Facts adelcid3004 https://padlet.com/adelcid3004/g542rerf69bl6fcf/wish/2190441784
  • Amines play an important role in the survival of life – they are involved in the creation of amino acids, the building blocks of proteins in living beings. Many vitamins are also built from amino acids. 
  • Serotonin is an important amine that functions as one of the primary neurotransmitters for the brain. It controls the feelings of hunger and is critical for the speed with which the brain operates in general. It also affects the state of happiness and helps in regulating the sleeping and waking-up cycle of the brain.

  • Primary Amines: When one of the hydrogen atoms of the ammonia molecule is replaced by an alkyl or aryl group.
  • Secondary Amines: Two organic substituents replace the hydrogen atoms of the ammonia molecule forming an amine.
  • Tertiary Amines: When all 3 of the hydrogen atoms are replaced by an organic substituent, it could be an aryl or aromatic group.
  • Cyclic Amines: These are secondary or tertiary amines in an aromatic ring structure.
