Question
Which of the following should be most volatile?
Options
\[\ce{(CH3)3N}\]
\[\ce{CH3CH2CH3}\]
\[\ce{CH3CH2CH2NH2}\]
\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{CH3CH2}\\
\phantom{..........}\backslash\\
\phantom{...............}\ce{NH}\\
\phantom{...........}/\\\
\phantom{......}\ce{CH3}
\end{array}\]
Solution
\[\ce{CH3CH2CH3}\]
Explanation:
Among primary, secondary and tertiary amines, tertiary amines are the most volatile compounds as they don't have any strong intermolecular H - bonding between \[\ce{N - H}\] like the primary and secondary amines have.
