Question

How are amines classified depending on the functional group? Give one example of each class of amines.

Answer in Brief

Solution

Classification of amines:

  1. Amines are classified as primary (1°), secondary (2°) and tertiary (3°) amines.
  2. Their structures are obtained in a simple way by replacing one, two, or three hydrogen atoms of NH3 molecule by alkyl/aryl groups.
  3. The functional group present in primary amines is referred to as an amino group (–NH2).
    e.g. Ethylamine [C2H5 – NH2]
  4. The functional group present in secondary amines is referred to as the imino group (>NH).
    e.g. Dimethylamine [(CH3)2NH]
  5. The functional group present in tertiary amines is tertiary nitrogen represented as:

    e.g. Trimethylamine [(CH3)3N]
