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
              • Ethylamines Order
                • Diethylamine stronger\nthan Triethylamine
      • Solvation Effect
        • More N-H bonds\nBetter H-bonding with water\nConjugate acid more stable
          • Favours Primary Amine
