213 UNIT 13 AMINES Points to Remember 1. Amines are alkyl and/or aryl derivatives of NH 3. 2. Functional groups of 1º, 2º and 3º amines are respectively as given below : 3. Gabriel phthalimide synthesis can t be used for the preparation of 2º and 3º amines. It gives aliphatic primary amine only. 4. Hoffmann s bromamide reaction gives 1º amines having one carbon atom less than parent primary amide. 5. The order of basic strength of aliphatic amines is : Aliphatic amines are more basic than NH 3. In aqueous solution medium, the order is 2º > 1º > 3º (for group) and 2º > 3º > 1º for C 2 group. In non-aqueous medium or gaseous phase, the order is 3º > 2º > 1º. 6. Basic strength of aromatic amines : Aromatic amines are weaker bases than NH 3. ERGs like, OR, etc. increase basic strength while EWGs like NO 2, CN etc. decrease the basic strength. The effect of substituents is more at para positions and less at meta position. 7. Basic strength of amines is expressed in terms of K b or pk b. 8. 1º, 2º and 3º amines can be distinguished by Hinsberg s test. 9. Hinsberg s reagent is benzenesulphonyl chloride ( SO 2 Cl). 10. 3º amines like trimethylamine are used as insect attractants. 11. Diazonium salts are represented by the general formula [Ar N N] + X.

Manich reaction involves the reaction of ketones with HCHO and NH 3 (or amine) in acidic medium to form Manich bases. 18. 1º amines give effervescence with HNO 2. 19. group in aniline is o- and p- directing and is highly activating in nature. 20. Acylation of aniline is done before subjecting it to nitration or halogenation. 21. Aliphatic diazonium salts are very unstable and do not exist while aromatic salts are relatively stable. 22. These salts are prepared from 1º aryl amines by diazotization reactions. 23. Diazotised salts (diazonium salts) are used to prepare a variety of aromatic compounds. 24. R C N have generally pleasant odours but alkyl isocyanides have highly unpleasant odours. 25. Alkyl isocyanides have lower boiling points than that of isomeric alkyl cyanides due to lower dipole moments. 26. Arenediazonium salts are highly reactive compounds and reactivity is due to excellent leaving ability of diazo group as N 2 gas.

12 Chemistry-XII R + CHCl 3 + 3KOH (alc.) R NC + 3KCl + 3H 2 O (b) Diazotization : When primary aromatic amine is treated with NaNO 2 and HCl at 273-278 K, diazonium salt is obtained. This reaction is known as diazotization. Benzenediazonium chloride is a very important synthetic compound, which can be changed into heloarenes, phenol, cyanobenzene, benzene etc. (c) Hoffmann s bromide reaction : When any primary amide (aliphatic or aromatic) is treated with bromine and alkali, it gives the amine of one carbon atom less. (d) (e) This reaction is used to reduce one carbon atom from a compound. Coupling reaction : When benzenediazonium chloride is treated with phenols or aromatic amines, azo dyes are produced in which diazo ( N = N ) group is retained.
