    Amines are organic compounds that contain nitrogen as the key atom. They can be classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary depending on the number of organic groups attached to the nitrogen atom. Amines have the general formula of RNH2, R2NH, or R3, where R is an alkyl or aryl group. They are polar compounds that can form hydrogen bonds and have higher boiling points than non-polar compounds of similar molecular weight but lower than alcohols or carboxylic acids.

    Amines and Thiols

    are organic compounds and a type of functional group that contain nitrogen as the key atom. Structurally
    amines resemble ammonia, wherein one or more hydrogenatoms are replaced by organic substituents
    such as alkyl and aryl groups.

    Naming Amines
    Amines can be either alkyl- substituted (alkylamines) or aryl- substituted
    (arylamines) ans can be classed as primary, secondary, or tertiary, depending on
    the oforganic substituted attached to nitrogen.
    Amines Structure
    An amine has the general formula RNH2, R2NH, or R3,where Ris any alkyl or aryl

    group.
    For example:

    Classification
    amines are classified as primary, secondary, tertiary, accorsingto the
    numbers of groups attached to the nitrogen atom.

    Nomeclature
    alipahatic amines are named by namingthe alkylgroup or aryl group
    attached to nitrogen ,and following these by the word- amine.

    Physical Properties of Amines


    Aminesare polar compounds and expect for tertiary amines , can form
    intermolecular hydrogen bonds. Amines have higerboilings piont than non
    polar compounds of the same molecular weight , but lower boiling points
    than alcohols or carboxylic acids.
    Are soluble in less polar solvents like ether, alcohol, benzene,etc.
