Chapter 15, Problem 9P
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.

5. Propose a Synthesis for the molecule below. You may use any starting materials containing 6 carbons or less (reagents that aren't incorporated into the final molecule such as PhзP do not count towards this total, and the starting material can have whatever non-carbon functional groups you want), and any of the reactions you have learned so far in organic chemistry I, II, and III. Your final answer should show each step separately, with intermediates and conditions clearly drawn. H3C CH3
