(b)
Interpretation:
The products of reductive amination of the given compounds are to be predicted.
Concept introduction:
When an aldehyde or a ketone is converted to an amine, the process is known as reductive amination. The conversion takes place through the formation of an intermediate known as imine. Reductive amination is also known as reductive alkylation.

- A chemically modified guanidino group is present in cimetidine (Tagamet), a widely prescribed drug for the control of gastric acidity and peptic ulcers. Cimetidine reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the interaction of histamine with gastric H2 receptors. In the development of this drug, a cyano group was added to the substituted guanidino group to alter its basicity. Do you expect this modified guanidino group to be more basic or less basic than the guanidino group of arginine? Explain.arrow_forward18-48 4-Aminobenzoic acid is prepared from benzoic acid by the following two steps. Show reagents and experimental conditions to bring about each step.arrow_forwarda.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?arrow_forward
- Give reasons :(i) Electrophilic substitution in aromatic amines takes place more readily than benzene.(ii) CH3CONH2 is weaker base than CH3CH2NH2.arrow_forwardPredict the major products formed when the following amines undergo exhaustivemethylation, treatment with Ag2O, and heating.2-methylpiperidinearrow_forwardAccount for the following :(i) Primary amines (R-NH2) have higher boiling point than tertiary amines (R3N).(ii) Aniline does not undergo Friedel – Crafts reaction.(iii) (CH3)2NH is more basic than (CH3)3N in an aqueous solution.arrow_forward
- Given that C6H11COOH has a pKa = 4.8 and C6H11N+H3 has a pKa = 10.7, What pH would you make the water layer to cause the carboxylic acid to dissolve in the water layer and the amine to dissolve in the ether layer?arrow_forwardBecause amines are basic, they can often accept a proton. Draw the protonated structure of n-propylamine.arrow_forward(a) Draw the three isomers of benzenedicarboxylic acid.(b) The isomers have melting points of 210 °C, 343 °C, and 427 °C. Nitration of the isomers at all possible positions was once used to determine their structures. The isomer that melts at 210 °C gives two mononitro isomers. The isomer that melts at 343 °C gives three mononitro isomers. The isomer that melts at 427 °C gives only one mononitro isomer. Show which isomer has which melting point.arrow_forward
