2. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.2 Boiling Points of Amines, Alcohols, and Alkanes The boiling points of amines are  higher than alkanes of similar mass  lower than alcohols of similar mass

3. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.3 Hydrogen Bonding in Amines The polar N—H bond  provides hydrogen bonding in 1° and 2° amines but not 3° amines  is not as polar as the —OH in alcohols

4. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.4 Solubility in Water Amines are soluble in water  if they have 1 to 5 carbon atoms  because the N atom in smaller amines forms hydrogen bonds with the polar O—H bond in water

7. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.7 Amines are  Brønsted-Lowry bases that attract a H + from H 2 O to the N atom  weak bases in water Amines React as Bases

8. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.8 An amine salt  forms when an amine is neutralized by an acid  is named by replacing the amine part of the name with ammonium followed by the name of the negative ion Neutralization Forms Amine Salts

9. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.9 Properties of Amine Salts Amine salts are  solids at room temperature  soluble in water and body fluids  the form used for drugs

10. General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.10 Cocaine  is sold illegally as an amine salt  is reacted with NaOH to produce the free amine form known as “crack”
