Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The primary, secondary or tertiary amine in the given compound is to be classified.

Concept introduction: Amines are nitrogen-containing organic compounds. The general formula of amines is RNH2. Amines can be classified as primary amine, secondary amine, and tertiary amine. In Primary amines, one of the hydrogen atoms of ammonia is replaced by alkyl or aryl group.

In secondary amines, two of the hydrogen atoms of ammonia are replaced by alkyl or aryl group.

In tertiary amines, all hydrogen atoms of ammonia are replaced by alkyl or aryl group.
