UNIT–12
ORGANIC COMPOUNDS CONTAINING NITROGEN (AMINES)
1. Ethyl amine is soluble in water but aniline is almost insoluble. Give reason.
Ans: Ethyl amine can form H-bonds with water molecules but aniline cannot due
to larger hydrocarbon part (hydrophobic)
2. Why are diazonium salts of aromatic amines are more stable than aliphatic
amines?
Ans: It is because aromatic diazonium salts are stabilized by resonance.
3. Arrange the following in the decreasing order of basic strength:
(i) C6H5NH2, CH3NH2, (CH3)2NH, (CH3)3N, NH3
(ii) C6H5NH2, C2H5NH2, (C2H5)2NH, (C2H5)3N, NH3
Ans: (i) (CH3)2NH < CH3NH2 < (CH3)3N < NH3 < C6H5NH2
(ii) (C2H5)2NH < (C2H5)3N < C2H5NH2 < NH3 < C6H5NH2,
4. Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is not preferred for aromatic primary amines. Why?
Ans: It is because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution.
5. Write the equations for the following:
(a) Coupling reaction (b) Acylation of aniline (c) Carbylamine reaction
Ans: Correct equations (see text book)
