What are amines a derivative of?
Ammonia (NH3)
How do you name amines? (IUPAC)
replace the "e"i n alkane to "-amine"
When do you number amines to show the position of the -NH2 group and other substituents?
When an amine has a chain of 3+ Carbon atoms
Name this Amine: CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-N-CH3 | H
N-methyl-1-butanamine
What classification is this amine? CH3-CH2-CH2-NH2
Primary
What classification is this amine?
Tetriary
For the priority of functional groups in IUPAC names Does a carboxylic acid, amide, or ester have the highest priority?
Amide<Ester<Carboxylic Acid
For the priority of functional groups in IUPAC names does an amide, ketone or aldehyde have the highest priority?
ketone<aldehyde<amide
For the priority of functional groups in IUPAC names which has the highest priority, alcohol, ketone, or amine?
amine<alcohol<ketone
For the priority of functional groups in IUPAC names halide, alkane, or amine?
halide<alkane<amine
which has a higher priority, ester or an alcohol?
ester
which has the lowest priority, alcohol or carboxylic acid?
alcohol
What is the amine of benzene called?
an aniline
name this aniline
N,N-dimethylaniline
Why must there always be 3 H attached to the N in amines?
Why must there always be 3 H attached to the N in amines?
Why are the Hydrogen bonds of amines weaker than those found in alcohols?
Because nitrogen is not as electronegative as oxygen, so the bond are weaker
Are N-H bonds polar or non polar?
polar, this makes it so that primary and secondary amines can form hydrogen bonds with water
What is the common name for this amine? CH3-CH2-NH2
ethyl amine
What is the common name for this amine? CH3 | CH3-N-CH3
trimethylamine
How does hydrogen bonding effect primary amines?
They have a higher boiling point than secondary amines
Why do tertiary amines have the lowest boiling point of the three?
because it's not possible for another hydrogen bond to form since there are already 3 present.
Are amines solubil in water?
Yes, primary are the most soluable, tetriary are the least
Do amines react as acids or bases in water?
Bases (they are weak though), the lone pair of electrons on the N (because there's an extra space, only 3 Hs are residence, there is a vacancy) is receptive and takes one of the H's from the water. The biproduct in this sort of a reaction is Hydroxide (OH-) (that's what happens to the lef…
How is an amine salt formed?
when an amine is neutralized by an acid
How do you name an amine salt?
by replacing "-amine" with "-amonium" followed by the name of the negative ion
What are the physical properties of amine salts?
ionoic compounds, solid at room temp, soluble in water
What illegal drug is an amine salt?
cocaine
What are examples of heterocyclic amines?
DNA and RNA
what is a heterocyclic amine?
a cyclic amine with a ring of five or six atoms, one or two of them are nitrogen
What are alkaloids?
physiologically active nitrogen-containing compounds produced by plants They are used as stimulants, anesthetics, and antidepressants and are often habit forming
Common alkaloids mentioned in the slides:
Nicotine Caffeine
Amidation: How are amides prepared?
by heating a carboxylic acid with ammonia or an amine
How do you name amides IUPAC
drop the "-ic acid" and add "-amide"
what are amides made of?
an amino group that replaces the -OH in a carboxylic acid
What is the name for this amide? CH3-Ch2_Ch2-CO-NH-CH3
n-ethylbutanamide
what is the name for this amide? CH3-CH2-Ch2-Ch2-CO-N-CH2-CH3 | CH2-Ch3
n,n-diethylpentanamide
What isthe amide of benzene called?
Benzamide
Name this amide: Ch3-Ch2-CH2-Ch2-CO-NH2
pentanamide
Name this amide: Ch3-Ch2-Ch2-CO-NH-CH3
N-methylbutyramide
what does hydrolysis mean?
water separation
when does hydrolysis occur?
when water reacts with an amide in the presence of an acid or a base
Amides that undergo acid hydrolysis form
carboxylic acid and an amonium salt
amides that undergo base hydrolysis form
a salt of carboxylic acid and an amine or ammonia
What does the hydrolysis of n-ethylpropanamide with NaOH form
O || CH3CH2CO– Na+ + CH3CH2NH2
what does a neurotransmitter do?
It's a chemical compound that transmits an impulse from a nerve cell to a target cell
What does dopamine do?
it's produced in the nerve cells of the midbrain and acts as a natural stimulant to give energy and feeling of enjoyment
what does norephinephrine and epinephrine do?
they are hormonal neurotransmitters that plan a role in sleep, attention, focus, and alertness
What is serotonin's job?
to help relax, and sleep deeply, peacefully, think rationally, and provides a wellbeing feeling and calmness
