Basicity of Amines in Aqueous Solution — The Three-Factor Analysis
The map in words
- Amine in Aqueous Solution
- Which factors operate?
- Inductive Effect
- More alkyl groups\nMore +I effect\nHigher electron density on N
- Favours Tertiary Amine
- Net Result in Water
- Methylamines Order
- Dimethylamine stronger\nthan Trimethylamine
- NOT simply Tertiary bigger than Primary
- Dimethylamine stronger\nthan Trimethylamine
- Ethylamines Order
- Diethylamine stronger\nthan Triethylamine
- Methylamines Order
- Net Result in Water
- Favours Tertiary Amine
- More alkyl groups\nMore +I effect\nHigher electron density on N
- Solvation Effect
- More N-H bonds\nBetter H-bonding with water\nConjugate acid more stable
- Favours Primary Amine
- More N-H bonds\nBetter H-bonding with water\nConjugate acid more stable
- Steric Hindrance
- Bulkier alkyl groups\nHinder water approach\nPoor solvation
- Disfavours Tertiary Amine
- Bulkier alkyl groups\nHinder water approach\nPoor solvation
- Inductive Effect
- Which factors operate?
