amine concepts

In naming amines via IUPAC, the "e" of the alkane parent name is replaced with:

• -amide

• -amido

• -ate
• -amine

What are amines called as substituents?

Where should the chain numbering begin in IUPAC naming of amines?

• on the Nitrogen

• on the carbon closest to the Nitrogen

• on the carbon farthest away from the Nitrogen

• in the middle of the chain

What is the common name for the following amine?

Name the following molecule:

• phenyl dimethylamine

• N-methyl-N-methylanilie

• dimethylaniline

• dimethylbenzenamine

How do alkyl groups affect amine base strength?

• alkyl groups are electron withdrawing, so they increase base strength

• alkyl groups are electron withdrawing, so they decrease base strength

• alkyl groups are electron donating, so they decrease base strength

• alkyl groups are electron donating, so they increase base strength

Which of the following amines is a stronger base?

• 1

• 2

How do anilines compare to alkyl amines in base strength?

• anilines are stronger bases; the benzene is electron donating

• anilines are weaker bases; the benzene is electron withdrawing

• anilines are stronger bases; the benzene is electron withdrawing

• anilines are weaker bases; the benzene is electron donating

How do electron donating groups on the benzene ring of an aniline affect base strength?

• EDGs increase aniline base strength

• EDGs decrease aniline base strength

How do electron withdrawing groups on the benzene ring of an aniline affect base strength?

• EWGs increase aniline base strength

• EWGs decrease aniline base strength
