- Ammonia heated under pressure with halogenoalkane
- Properties
- Aryl amines
- Less volatile, usually liquid
- Dissolve in organic solvents,
only slightly in water
- Less volatile, usually liquid
- Alkyl amines
- H-bond → higher m.p
- Lower members are gases or volatile liquids
- H-bond → higher m.p
- Strong Bases: lone pair on N
- e- shift from alkyl group →
primary alkyl amines better that
ammonia
- aryl amine: e- on N interact with delocalised pi e- → weaker base than NH3
- e- shift from alkyl group →
primary alkyl amines better that
ammonia
- Aryl amines
- Reactions
- NS: With Halogenoalkanes → substituted ammine
- A-E: With AC → N substituted amides
- Condensation polymers: polyamides
- Condensation polymers: polyamides
- Amines form complex ions in similar way to NH3
- ES of phenylamine → 4-aminobenzenesulfonamide
- Sulfonamides destroy bacteria

- Amino Acids
- Contain NH2 and COOH and R group
- Acidic and basic properties
- In alkaline soln: acid
- In acidic son: base
- In neutral soln: zwitterion formed
- aa can exist as zwitterions in solid state → high
mp, dissolve in water. Don't dissolve in organic
solvent

mp, dissolve in water. Don't dissolve in organic
solvent

- Peptide bond C-N in
condensation
reaction
- Proteins made up of particular sequence of aa
- Can determine structure of protein, e.g. Insulin by Frederick Sanger
- Difficult for chemists to synthesise proteins
- Longer chain = more difficult
- Longer chain = more difficult
- Can determine structure of protein, e.g. Insulin by Frederick Sanger
- Hydrolysis of proteins
- Reflux with d.HCl
- aa neutralised
- aa separated by paper chromatography
- Invisible, so spray with ninhydrin in fume
cupboard and dry → purple spots
- Rf value to identify aa
- Rf value to identify aa
- Sometimes electrophoresis is used
- Invisible, so spray with ninhydrin in fume
cupboard and dry → purple spots
- aa separated by paper chromatography
- aa neutralised
- Reflux with d.HCl
- Optical activity
- Most aa form optical isomers
- aa in living organisms are L enentiomers
- Laboratory synthesis of aa tends to produce
racemic mixture of L and D enantiomers
- Most aa form optical isomers
- Contain NH2 and COOH and R group
- Ecstasy (an amine) causes
release of serotonin and
dopamine in the brain
- Paracetamol
- Phenol is nitrated using H2SO4 and Sodium nitrate
- 2-nitrophenol and 4-nitrophenol
- Fractional distillation
- 4-nitrophenol is reduced → 4-aminophenol
- Using Sodium tetrahydridoborate(III) in alkaline soln
- + ethanoic anhydride →paracetamol
- Using Sodium tetrahydridoborate(III) in alkaline soln
- 4-nitrophenol ↑bp
- 4-nitrophenol is reduced → 4-aminophenol
- 2-nitrophenol and 4-nitrophenol
- No chiral centres → simpler

- <5 degrees
- benzenediazonium chloride + water
- Diazonium compound reactions
- NS: N evolved
- Is strong electrophile
- Coupling → strong coloured
compounds, no N produced
- Diazo-compounds are extremely stable and unreactive
- Extensive delocalised
e- system → bright
colours
- Dye
