Amine Nomenclature
The Naming of Parts
Alkylamines
Nitrogen atom is
attached to alkyl group:
Arylamines
Nitrogen atom is
attached to aryl group:
Nomenclature of Primary Alkylamines (RNH2)
Two IUPAC styles
1) analogous to alcohols: replace -e
ending by -anamine
2) name alkyl group and attach -amine
as a suffix
Nomenclature of Primary Alkylamines
n-propylamine
or
propanamine
cyclopropylamine
or
cyclopetanamine
2-bromo-3-chlorobutylamine
Nomenclature of Arylamines (ArNH2)
These compounds are named as derivatives of aniline

2,4-dibromoaniline
4-bromo-2-ethylaniline
Amino Groups have Lower Priority than Alcohols
With regards to nomenclature, amines rank lower than
alcohols and are named as substituents:
aminoethanol
p-aminobenzoic acid
Secondary and Tertiary Amines
Name
as
N-substituted
derivatives
of
parent
primary amine. The longest chain takes the root name.
N,N-diisopropylethylamine
(a.k.a. Hünig’s base)
4-bromo-N,N-dimethyl-2-methylaniline
Ammonium Salts (R4-nHnN+ X-)
Nitrogen atoms are positively charged when bonded to four
substituents. The root name in this case is the ammonium
ion (NH4+). Remember to name as a salt - two words.
methylammonium acetate
N-ethyl-N-methylbenzylammonium chloride
Quaternary Ammonium Salts (R4N+ X-)
Nitrogen atoms are positively charged when bonded to four
substituents: when all of these substituents are carbon, the
molecule is referred to as a quaternary ammonium ion.
tetrabutylammonium fluoride
(TBAF)
Quaternary ammonium salts
are relatively soluble in
organic
solvents
and
consequently are used as
phase transfer catalysts
benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide

Alkylamines - Distribution of Electron Density
Note the high electron density on the nitrogen atom. The
chemistry of amines is dominated by reactivity of the lone
pair on this atom. Amines behave as nucleophiles and
Bronsted bases.
Alkylamines - Hydridization at Nitrogen
The hybridization adopted by nitrogen depends upon
the nature of the N-substituents.
Compare methylamine and formamide:
Amines & Amides - Geometry at Nitrogen
the hybridization adopted by nitrogen depends upon the
nature of the N-substituents - compare methylamine
and formamide.
Amines - Geometry at Nitrogen
Angle that the C—N bond makes with bisector of
H—N—H angle is a measure of the pyramidalization at
nitrogen.

Amines - Geometry at Nitrogen
Angle that the C—N bond makes with bisector of
H—N—H angle is a measure of the pyramidalization at
nitrogen.
142.5°
Geometry at the nitrogen atom in
aniline is pyramidal;
closer to
methylamine than to formamide.
Geometry of Aniline
The hybridization of the nitrogen atom in aniline lies between
sp2 and sp3
1)
Delocalization of the nitrogen lone pair into the aromatic ring is
most effective if the nitrogen atom is sp2-hybridized and planar.
2)
A planar nitrogen atom increases repulsion between filled lone
pair orbital and p-system of aromatic ring - sp3 hybridization
reduces this “bad” interaction.

Aniline - Distribution of Electron Density
Enforce a non-planar
geometry (sp3-like) at the
nitrogen center
Enforce a planar geometry
(sp2-like) at the nitrogen
center
- highest negative potential
is on nitrogen.
- negative potential is
shared by both nitrogen and
ring.

Physical Properties of Amines
Amines - Physical Properties
Amines are more polar and have higher boiling
points than alkanes;
but are less polar and
have lower boiling points than alcohols.

Primary amines have two hydrogens on nitrogen capable
of
being
involved
in
intermolecular
hydrogen
bonding.
Secondary amines have one. Tertiary
amines
cannot
be

in

hydrogen bonds.
22.4
Basicity of Amines
Amines are Brønstead Bases and Nucleophiles
Brønstead Basicity of Amines
1. Alkylamines are slightly stronger
bases than ammonia.
2. ……
Basicity of Amines in Aqueous Solution
The ethylammonium ion (CH3CH2NH3+) is a
weaker acid than ammonium (NH4+)
therefore; ethylamine (H3CH2NH2) is a
stronger base than ammonia (NH3)
The Relationship between pKa and Basicity
The ethylammonium ion (CH3CH2NH3+) is a
weaker acid than ammonium (NH4+)
therefore; ethylamine (H3CH2NH2) is a
stronger base than ammonia (NH3)
The Relationship Between Basicity and Structure
1. Alkylamines are slightly stronger
bases than ammonia.
2. Alkylamines differ very little in
basicity.

Arylamines - Effect of Substituents on Basicity
1. Alkyl groups on the ring increase basicity by only one 1 pK
unit.
Arylamines - Effect of Substituents on Basicity
2. Electron withdrawing groups, especially ortho
and/or para to amine group, decrease basicity
and can have a large effect.

The Term ‘Alkaloid’
The term ‘alkaloid’ is composed from two
words, the Arabic ‘al-qualja’ (plant ashes)
and the Greek ‘eidos’ (type, similarity).
The Term ‘Alkaloid’
Meissner 1819: To me it seems wholly
appropriate to refer to those plant
substances currently known by the names of
alkalis, but alkaloids, since some of their
properties they differ from alkalis
considerably, and would thus find their place
before the plant acids in the field of plant
chemistry.
Jacobsen 1882: The bodies referred to as
alkaloids are nitrogen-containing organic
bases. The group, however, is in many
respects not sharply defined.
The Term ‘Alkaloid’
Pelletier 1983: An alkaloid is a cyclic organic
compound containing nitrogen in a negative
oxidation state, which is of limited distribution
among living organisms.
Amines as Natural Products - Alkaloids
The man…. laid his hands on him and after a
while examined his feet and legs, then pinched his
foot hard and asked if he felt it. He said ‘No’; then
after that, his thighs; and passing upwards in this
way he showed us that he was growing cold and
rigid. And then again he touched him and said that
when it reached his heart, he would be gone. The
chill had now reached the region about the groin,
...the attendant uncovered him; his eyes were
fixed. And Crito when he saw it, closed his mouth
and eyes.
[Plato's description of the death of Socrates, as
witnessed by Crito in 399 B.C.]
Conium maculatum
Hemlock contains the alkaloid
coniine, among other compounds
