Chapter 16, Problem 16.14P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To name and draw a structural formula for each amine formed from C4H11N.

Concept Introduction:

For a given molecular formula, there will be many possible structural formulas. The constitutional isomers have the same molecular formula but differ in the connectivity of their atoms. These are called structural isomers.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

To classify each constitutional isomer drawn as primary, secondary or tertiary.

Concept Introduction:

If nitrogen atom of an amine is connected to one carbon then it is called a primary amine. If the nitrogen atom of an amine is connected to two carbons, then it is called a secondary amine. If the nitrogen atom of an amine is connected to three carbons, then it is called a tertiary amine.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

To select the amines among the drawn structures which are chiral.

Concept Introduction:

Chirality is the property by which the actual and mirror images have their resemblance. Amines are said to be chiral if all the substituents attached to it are different.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
Draw and name compounds that meet the following descriptions: a. Two primary, 2 secondary, and 2 tertiary amines having the formula C5H13N
a.Primary amides tend to exist as dimers in the solid and liquid state. b.Dimethylacetamide, CH3CON(CH3)2 has a higher boiling point than acetamide. c.Nitrile is often classified as an acid derivative because it is hydrolyzed to a -COOH. d.Esters have lower boiling points than ketones of comparable molecular masses. Whice are correct?
Because amines are basic, they can often accept a proton. Draw the protonated structure of n-propylamine.
