CHAPTER 8 : AMINE
9.1 Introduction and nomenclature
� Amines are organic compounds with functioning group –NH2 (aminO)
� The naming of amine depends on the classification of amine. Table below shows different class of amine and their naming

Explanation :
When going down to homologous series, the boiling point increase. This is due to the increase in relative molecular mass, which increase the weak Van DerWaals forces causing boiling point increase.
Amine can form hydrogen bond between molecules. Straight chain molecule has a larger total surface area compare to a branched chain molecule. Hence, greater the total surface area exposed, greater the Van DerWaals forces, higher the boiling point. However, tertiary amine cannot form hydrogen bond, so their boiling point decrease significantly.

Explanation
B) Solubility of amine
Ethanoic acid has 2 hydrogen bond within their molecules, so their hydrogen bond is the strongest. Both propylamine and propan1-ol has hydrogen bond, but propan-1-ol has a stronger hydrogen bond since O is more electronegative than N. Butane is a non-polar molecule, which is held by weak Van DerWaals forces
methylamine, ethylamine and propylamine are completely miscible in water as they can form hydrogen bond with water. However, the LONGER the ALKYL GROUPS ATTACHED, molecule become MORE HYDROPHOBIC. As a result, HYDROGEN BOND BECOME LESS SIGNIFICANT and cause the solubility decrease.
C) Basicity of amine
Amine is a weak base. When dissolve in water, it undergoes partial
dissociation where
The pKb of some amine is given in the table below

All alkyls are electron donating group, which donate electron
density to N in NH2, making N to be more readily to accept proton.
Hence, equilibrium shift more to right, increasing the basicity.
Longer the alkyl chain, greater the electron donating effect, greater
the basicity.
Basicity increase from 10 amine < 20 amine < 30 amine. This is due to, the more the
alkyl group surrounding N, greater the electron donating effect, where N has large
electron density and are more readily to accept proton, causing equilibrium to shift
more to right, increasing the basicity of amine.
phenylamine is a weaker base compare to alkyl amine, due to the
benzene ring is an electron withdrawing group. As a result, N in
amine has lesser electron density and is less readily to accept
proton (conversely more readily to donate proton) which caused
equilibrium shift more to left. This results the basicity of
phenylamine is lesser than alkyl amine. When a ring activator is
bonded to phenylamine, ita activate further the ring and caused
the ring to be more readily to accept proton, hence increase the
basicity. Conversely, if a ring deactivator is bonded to
phenylamine, it deacticate the ring and caused benzene to be
less readily to accept proton, decreasing the basicity

(B) Reaction of amine with nitrous acid
� Nitrous acid (or nitric (III) acid) is unstable. It can be prepared by reaction of sodium nitrite and hydrochloric acid
� Equation : NaNO2 (s) + HCl (aq) � NaCl (aq) + O=N–OH (aq)
� The organic products formed from the reaction between nitrous acid and amine depend on 2 factors
� Class of amine used � Condition of the reaction
� When aliphatic primary amine reacts with nitrous acid, nitrogen is evolved rapidly and alcohol is produce as major product along with some side product such as alkene and in some case, ether.
� The reaction of nitrous acid follows the mechanism below
Primary amine :
� Amine act as nucleophile and attack nitrosyl cation, the following mechanism of reaction take place.
diazonium ion
� The reaction after the formation of diazonium ion is complex. Depend on the condition of the reaction, it form various organic compound such as alcohol or alkene. Example :
Secondary amine
� Secondary amine reacts with nitrous acid (nitrosyl cation) under room condition to form nitrosoamine. Unlike primary amine, there’s no nitrogen gas evolve. Example
N–nitrosoamine
Tertiary amine
� Tertiary amine dissolve readily in acidic solution of nitrous acid to form salt according to the equation
(C) Reaction with acyl chloride (refer Chap 8.4)
� When acyl chloride reacts with primary amine, it will form a secondary amide
� When react acyl chloride with a secondary amine, it will form a tertiary amide
� Acyl chloride will not be acylated as it does not has a hydrogen atom to be substituted.
9.3 Aromatic amine
� The simplest form of aromatic amine is phenylamine, which is better known as aniline
� Some of the common naming of aromatic amines are shown below
aniline p-nitroaniline o-methylaniline N-methylaniline
diphenylamineN-ethyl-N-methylaniline
N,N-diethylaniline phenylmethylamine
9.3.1 Preparation of aniline
� Aniline can be prepare by using nitrobenzene. Reagent : conc. HCl catalysed by tin, Sn.
9.3.2 Chemical reaction of aniline
1. Reaction with acid : the basic properties of aniline
� Aniline is considerably weak acid as the pKb = 9.3
� This is due to the electron withdrawing effect of the benzene, causes the electron density of nitrogen decrease. When this occur, nitrogen are more readily to donate proton rather than accept and equilibrium shift more to the left (Kb decrease)
� Though, aniline is able to react with acid by accepting the H+ from acid and form salt

HNO3
• Salts of aniline are colourless, crystalline solid and mostly are soluble in water. When react with alkali, it give back the phenyl amine with salt and water
2. Reaction of aniline with haloalkane
� If aniline is reacted with iodomethane (CH3I) under ethanolic, a secondary amine is first formed and eventually turns out to become salt
� If excess haloalkane is used, the reaction will further to form a tertiary amine and quaternary salt.
3. Reaction of aniline with acyl chloride (Chapter 8.4)
� This is one of the method use to prepare amide as discussed earlier. When acyl chloride react with amine, a secondary amide is formed
� When a secondary amine reacts with acyl chloride, it will form a tertiary amide.
� Tertiary amine will not react with acyl chloride as there’s no H substitute out
4. Reaction of aniline with nitrous acid
� Similar to the reaction of nitrous acid with alkyl amine, aniline react with the electrophilenitrosyl cation where the formation of ion follow the mechanism below
� When aniline attacks the electrophilic nitrosyl cation, it form benzenediazonium ion.
� Benzenediazonium chloride formed is unstable and tends to react with other substances. Diagram below shows the type of reaction that the benzenediazonium can undergoes
5. Formation of dyes by coupling reaction
� The reaction of forming azo dye is via coupling reaction. Diazonium ion react with benzene attached with strong ring activate group, under alkaline condition, to give bright colouration of azo dye. Strong ring activate group direct at ortho-para position.
Benzenediazonium chloride phenol 4-hydroxyphenylazobenzene
� When react with 1-naphthol, it form a bright scarlet azo dye
� When react with another aniline, it form an orange-red precipitate dye.
9.4 Chemical tests for aniline
(1) Reaction with bromine
� Similar to phenol, aniline is a strong ring activate group. So, when aniline is reacted with aqueous bromine solution, it forms a white precipitate.
(2) Reaction with sodium chlorate (I), NaClO
� When aniline is added to NaClO, a purple colouration is obtained
(3) Reaction with phenol under alkaline solution
� As discuss earlier, when aniline is react phenol under NaOH, a yellow precipitate is observed.
10.1 Introduction
� Amino acid has the general formula of NH2 – CHR –COOH.
� From the general above, we can tell that there are 2 functioning groups of –NH2 (amine) and –COOH (carboxylic acid).
� There are 22 types of amino acids and almost all naturally occurring amino acids are α-amino acid
� The terms α- mean both NH2 and COOH are attached at the same C. Considering –COOH act as the functioning group, α-amino acid has the general naming as 2-aminocarboxylic acid
� The simplest form of amino acid is called glycine (2-aminoethanoic acid)
� All amino acids are optical active (except glycine) as they have 4 different functioning groups (chiral carbon atom).
Acidic amino acid Neutral amino acid Basic amino acid
The number of COOH is
more than NH2
The number of COOH is
equal to the number of NH2
The number of COOH is less
than NH2
� Since amino acid has both acidic (–COOH) and basic (–NH2) fuctional group, hence amino acid undergoes 3 types of chemical reaction :
� reactions characteristic of the amino group
� reactions characteristic of the carboxylic group
� reaction due to the presence of both group
� Because of both (–COOH) and (–NH2) group, it makes amino acid very soluble in water. Neutral amino acid such as alanine and glycine are slightly miscible on ethanol and epoxyethan.
� This is due to amino acid exist as polar ion.amino acid exist as a zwitterions, which carries both positive and negative charge in its molecule. A zwitterions is formed when –COOH donated its proton to –NH2, according to
Condition Equation Charge

� Isoelectric point – the pH at which amino acid has a net charge of zero.
� Amino acids with one –COOH and one –NH2 have isoelectric points in the pH range 5.5 – 6.5
� Acidic amino acid (eg : aspartic acid and glutamic acid) has lower isoelectric point (lower pH value) while basic amino acids (eg : lysine and arginine) have higher isoelectric point (higher pH value)

10.2.2 Formation of peptide lingkage
� The reaction which link 2 amino acids together is a condensation reaction where water is given off and formed a dipeptide. Peptide link is a secondary amide group where the C-from one amino acid is linked to the –N of another amino acid.
� If 3 amino acids joined together, the product is ………………….. When a lot of amino acids join together, the product is a …………….. When the many chain of peptide formed …………..…....
10.2.3 Hydrolysis of Protein
� Protein could be broken into its constituent amino acids by heating under reflux with aqueous NaOH or dilute H2SO4 via hydrolysis reaction.
� Hydrolysis of protein can be completely or partially hydrolyse.
� Complete hydrolysis of protein gives the number and relative amount of amino acids, but does not provide the information of the order of how they joined together (the sequence of R)
� Partially hydrolysis give fragments which still retain sequence information. When these fragments are separated and identified, the overall protein structure can be deduced. Example
10.3 Chemical Test for amino acid
� Aminoethanoic acid (NH2CH2COOH) gives the following reactions :
� It liberates CO2 when treated with Na2CO3 and NaHCO3.
� Form dark red solution when treated with neutral iron (III) chloride solution.
� It gives a deep blue solution when treated with copper (II) solution due to the copper (II) complex.
10.4 Function of Proteins
� All proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids.
� Each protein is determined by its amino acid sequence (which ranges from 44 amino acids in the hormone insulin to giant molecules with more than 50,000 amino acids).
� Proteins are essential in living systems - animals, plants and micro-organisms.
� Proteins are responsible for growth, repair and maintenance of the body.
Types of proteins Function
structural proteins
• provide the framework which defines the size and shape of cells
• e.g. elastin (in ligament)
a -keratins (in skin, hair, nails)
collagen (in connective tissue, tendon, cartilage)
muscle fibres• produces mechanical force and movement,
• e.g. actin and myosin
transport proteins• move metabolites around the cell or around the whole
organism
• e.g. haemoglobin which transports oxygen in blood
Some hormones• control the level and type of cell activity,
• e.g. insulin which regulates glucose metabolism
Enzymes• catalyse metabolic processes which produce energy, build
up new cell structures and destroy old ones
10.5 Protein Structures
� The structure of proteins are categorised into four levels of complexity:
> primary (1°) structure > secondary (2°) structure
> tertiary (3°) structure > quaternary (4°) structure
10.5.1 Primary (1°) structure
� The primary (1°) structure of a protein shows the order (or sequence) of amino acids in a protein chain
� By convention, amino acid sequence is written with free –NH2 on left & free –COOH on right.
� The primary structure includes any covalent cross-linkages, e.g. –S–S– bonds.
� The primary structure determines -what the protein is, how it folds, and its function.
� The sequence of R groups determines whether the protein chain will
1. coil with hydrogen bonding between N-H and C=O groups within each chain (α–helix), or
2. fold with hydrogen bonds formed between two protein chains (β–pleated sheet).
