Amines are a molecule derived from ammonia that are integral in the creation of amino acids in the human body. They are also used in the production of dyes, some medications, and other industrial products.

What are amines known for in chemistry?

Amines are produced when a hydrogen atom in ammonia has been replaced by an alkyl or aryl group. Examples of amines are biogenic amines, amino acids and aniline.

Why is aliphatic amines stronger bases than aromatic amines?

Aliphatic amines are stronger bases than aromatic amines because the lone pair on the nitrogen atom in aliphatic amines is more available for donation due to the absence of resonance effects that stabilize the lone pair in aromatic amines. This makes aliphatic amines more likely to accept protons and act as bases.


When heated with chloroform secondary amines and tertiary amines are?

Secondary amines produce N-alkyl-substituted formamides, while tertiary amines form N-alkyl-substituted chloroformamides when heated with chloroform.


Do amines contain oxygen?

Not necessarily. Amines contain nitrogen, but many do not contain oxygen.


Do amines and nitrates cancel each other in the stomach?

Amines + Nitrates/Nitrites = carcinogenic nitrosamines


Are amines electron donating or withdrawing in chemical reactions?

Amines are electron-donating in chemical reactions.


What will happen when Amines subjected to heat?

When amines are subjected to heat, they can undergo thermal degradation, leading to the formation of byproducts such as primary amines and ammonia. Additionally, higher temperatures can promote elimination reactions in amines, resulting in the formation of alkenes.


Why is diazotization not possible in aliphatic amines?

Bcoz alipatic amines require very low temperature like about -25 degrees celsius...which is difficult to maintain.....thats y its not posible to form diazonium salt with aliphatic amines...where as for aromatic amines its posible as temperature range is 0 - 5 degres..


Are amines considered to be acidic or basic?

Amines are considered to be basic because they can accept protons (H) in a chemical reaction.


How does amines smells?

Why Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines?

In gabriel synthesis on primary amines are formed. Secondary and tertiary amines are not formed this yields in pure rimary amine product. Hence Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines
