Physical properties of Amines
Amines (1 °,2 ° and 3 °) are highly polar materials because of the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen.
The N-H bond is less polar than the O-H bond. Weaker hydrogen bonding. Tertiary amines cannot hydrogen bond but are hydrogen bond acceptors.

Physical properties of Amines
Amines up to about 6 carbons are water soluble. Amines accept hydrogen bonds from water and
alcohols. Branching increases solubility. Amines have very strong odors (rotting fish).

Physical properties of Amines
Amines are bases, in the presence of acids the lone pair of electrons act as a proton acceptor (Bronsted-Lowry bases).
The lone pair of electrons on nitrogen can also act as a nucleophile (Lewis base).

Physical properties of Amines
Amines are converted to the water soluble ammonium salt by treatment with an acid. Examples: HCl, HBr, H2SO4 and organic acids.
The salt can be converted back to the free amine by treatment with a strong base. Examples: NaOH, KOH, Na2CO3 and bicarbonate.
Amines are often isolated and purified using acid/base extraction. page 881
Amine salts are more stable to air oxidation than the free amine and have little or no odor.

Reactions of Pyridine
The pyridine ring is deactivated towards electrophilic aromatic substitution because of the electronegative nitrogen in the ring.Additionally the non-bonding electron on the nitrogen would react with the electrophile. Reaction only occurs under extreme conditions. Note: That substitution is in the 3-position.
![Page 36: Structure and properties Nomenclature Reactions (some review) Synthesis (some review)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56814579550346895db249d9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Reactions of Pyridine
The pyridine ring is activated towards nucleophilic aromatic substitution. With substitution occurring at either the 2- or 4- position. The sigma complex is stabilized by the negative charge being on nitrogen.

Alkylation of Amines
Amines are good nucleophiles that react with alkyl halides via a Sn2 mechanism.
Reaction with primary halides give alkylated ammonium halides.
Secondary halides are less reactive than primary halides andoften give poor yields or elimination products.
Tertiary halides do not react because of steric hindrance. Note: The that °3 halides can still under go elimination.
![Page 38: Structure and properties Nomenclature Reactions (some review) Synthesis (some review)](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062802/56814579550346895db249d9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Alkylation of Amines
The reaction of one mole of primary amine with one mole of alkyl halide will give a mixture of starting primary amine, secondary amine, tertiary amine and quaternary ammonium salts.
There two methods that can be used to avoid obtaining mixtures of products when alkylating amines with alkyl halides.

Alkylation of Amines
Exhaustive alkylation (methylation) involves reacting the amine with an excess of alkyl halide in the presence of an acid scavenger.

Alkylation of Amines
The use of a large excess of ammonia results in monoalkylation. The excess ammonia is simply allowed to boil of at the end of the reaction. This synthetic approach is useful in many situations but is often limited by the cost of the alkyl halide.

Acylation of Amines
Amides are produced by the treatment of primary and secondary amines with acid halides in the presents of a non-nucleophilic acid scavenger.
The reaction involves the nucleophilic attack of the amine on the carbonyl carbon (the electrophilic center) of the acid halide followed by loss HX.
Amides are far less basic and nucleophilic than amines. As a result mono-acylation product is normally produced.
Why is the amide less basic and nucleophilic than the amine?

Acylation of Amines
The acyl group in an amide can be easily removed by hydrolysis with aqueous acid. As a result acylation can be used as a means of temporary protecting the amine group as the amide while conducting other reactions that would produce undesired change in the amine. The acyl group acts as a Masking agent.
Many reactions can not be done directly on the aromatic ring of aniline either because the amine will react with the reagents or multiple substitution occur.

Acylation of Amines
The Friedel-Crafts acylation of the ring fails in the above reaction. However, if the amine of the aniline is acylation first then the ring can be acylated.

Elimination Reactions involving Amines
Amines can under go two different types of elimination reactions that give alkenes.
Hofmann elimination: An amine is exhaustively methylated to the quaternary ammonium salt. The halide salt is converted to the hydroxide salt by treatment with silver oxide. The quaternary ammonium hydroxide is then thermally decomposed via a conserted E2 mechanism to give the alkene.
Cope Elimination: A tertiary amine is converted to the amine oxide by treatment with hydrogen peroxide or a peroxyacid. The amine oxide is then thermally decomposed to give an alkene.
Both reactions generally give the least-substituted alkene.

Cope elimination:
The oxidation of amines can lead to a number of different products depending on the type of starting amine.
Oxidation of °1 amines results in the formation of hydroxyl amines which are oxidized to nitroso cpds which are then oxidized to nitro cpds.
°2 amines are oxidized to hydroxyl amines.
°3 amines are oxidized to amine oxides. The Cope elimination involves the thermal decomposition of these amine oxides.

Cope elimination:
The oxidation of the °3 amine is easily done using either 30% or 50% hydrogen peroxide. The reaction is very exothermic and the addition of the peroxide must be carefully regulated to avoid over heating the reaction.

Synthesis of Amines via reduction
Reductive amination is a two step process that adds an alkyl group to ammonia, a primary or secondary amine.
1. The first step is the formation of the imine or oxime
derivative of an aldehyde or ketone.
2. The imine/oxime is then reduced to give the amine.
The reaction is done on an industrial scale using H2
over a Ni catalyst. Laboratory scale process generally rely on hydride reducing agents such
as LAH.

Synthesis of Amines via reduction
Tertiary amines via reductive amination:
Since many iminium salts are unstable they are generally not isolate. As a result the reducing agent is added to the reaction mixture so that the iminium salt can be reduced as it is formed. Only very weak reducing agents can be used in this reaction to avoid reduction of the starting aldehyde or ketone. Sodium triacetoxyborohydride and sodium cyanoborohydride will reduce the iminium salt without reducing the carbonyl compound.Industrially, the reaction is done using hydrogen and a Ni catalyst.

Synthesis of Amines via acylation reduction
Amines are mono acylated by treatment with with an acid chloride. Since the resulting amide is a poor nucleophile multiply acylations are not likely. The amide is then converted to the amine by treatment with LAH. The type of amine produced depends on the type of starting amine used.

Synthesis of of primary Amines
Direct alkylation:
Primary amines can be prepared from alkyl halide by using a large excess of ammonia to avoid / minimize multiply alkylations on nitrogen.
Gabriel synthesis:
This synthetic method allows for the selective preparation of primary amines with out the use of a large excess of amine. The synthesis involved the alkylation of the phthalimide anion, which is simply a protected ammonia that can only be alkylated once.

Synthesis from azides and nitriles
The azide and nitrile groups can be reduced to primary amines using either LAH or catalytic hydrogenation.
The azide ion N3- and cyanide ion CN- are both
very good nucleophiles that will react readily with primary and secondary halides.

Synthesis from azides and nitriles
Reaction of an alkyl halide with azide ion produces an alkyl azide. Reduction of the azide gives corresponding the 1° amine. The main drawback to the synthetic method is that alkyl azides are explosive. The net reaction is the replacement of the halide with NH2.

Synthesis from azides and nitriles
Reaction of an alkyl halide with cyanide ion produces an a nitrile. Nitriles are very stable and are easily handled. Reduction of the nitrile gives a primary amine that is one carbon (CH2) longer then the initial alkyl halide.

Hofmann rearrangement
The Hofmann rearrangement allows for the preparation of primary amines that have 1°, 2° and 3° alkyl groups, or aryl amines. The reaction involves the treatment of an amide with a halogen under strongly basic conditions. This results in a rearrangement of the amide to an amine in which the carbonyl of the starting amide has been lost.
