Aminesphenols

This document discusses the nomenclature, properties, preparation reactions, and characteristic reactions of amines. It covers several methods for preparing amines, including reduction of nitro compounds, nitriles, amides, imines/enamines, and reductive amination of carbonyl compounds. It also discusses amine reactions such as those involving bases, amide formation, alkylation, and reaction with nitrous acid to form diazonium salts, nitrosamines, or C-nitroso compounds depending on the amine. Characteristic reactions of phenols such as ether formation, ester formation, Friedel-Crafts acylation, halogenation, and coupling with diazonium salts
