Solution and Explanation
Top Questions on Amines
- Why ammonolysis of alkyl halides is not a good method to prepare pure amines?
- Why is the $pK_b$ of aniline greater than that of methylamine?
- Assertion (A): Aromatic primary amines cannot be prepared by Gabriel Phthalimide synthesis.
Reason (R): Ary1 halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution reaction with the anion formed by phthalimide. For the reaction sequence given below, the correct statement(s) is(are):
Amines have a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom, due to which they behave as Lewis bases. Greater the value of \( K_b \) or smaller the value of \( pK_b \), stronger is the base. Amines are more basic than alcohols, ethers, esters, etc. The basic character of aliphatic amines should increase with the increase of alkyl substitution. However, it does not occur in a regular manner, as a secondary aliphatic amine is unexpectedly more basic than a tertiary amine in aqueous solutions. Aromatic amines are weaker bases than ammonia and aliphatic amines. Electron-releasing groups such as \( -CH_3 \), \( -NH_2 \), etc., increase the basicity, while electron-withdrawing substituents such as \( -NO_2 \), \( -CN \), halogens, etc., decrease the basicity of amines. The effect of these substituents is more pronounced at the para-position than at the meta-position.
