- (a) For the compound above, identify each nitrogen as either a primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, or aromatic
amine . - (b) Which amine group(s) would be able to provide a hydrogen bond? Which could accept a hydrogen bond?
(a)
Interpretation:
It should be identified that the each nitrogen in the given compound either as a primary, secondary, tertiary amine, or aromatic amine.
Concept introduction:
Amines are the derivatives of ammonia
Depending on the number of carbon side chain of the nitrogen, different types of amines can form.
In a quaternary ammonium ion a nitrogen atom with four attached groups is positively charged. And their compounds are known as quaternary ammonium salt.
Example: Tetramethylammonium ion
Aniline is an aromatic amine compound and its structure is,
Answer to Problem 16.23UKC
Explanation of Solution
Structure of the given compound is,
As per the concepts above mentioned,
Each nitrogen atoms in the given compound can be identified either as a primary, secondary, tertiary amine or aromatic amine as follows,
(b)
Interpretation:
The amine group which would be able to provide a hydrogen bond and accept a hydrogen bond in the given compound has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Amines are the derivatives of ammonia
Depending on the number of carbon side chain of the nitrogen, different types of amines can form.
Hydrogen bond is an attractive force established between hydrogen atom attached to a highly electronegative element and another highly electronegative element of the same or different molecule.
Answer to Problem 16.23UKC
Explanation of Solution
Structure of the given compound is,
In a hydrogen bond strong partial positive charge on hydrogen attracts lone electron pair on oxygen or nitrogen.
Here in the given molecule, an amine group which was able to provide a hydrogen bond and accept a hydrogen bond and those amines can be identified as follows,
