Amines Flashcards
How do amines react with acid
As a base, forming an ammonium salt
Amine + acyl chloride
Amide
Amine + Haloalkane
Secondary amine
Amine + Cu 2+ ions
Amines are ligands and form coordinate bonds with metal ions
Test for amines
add Cu2+ ions and observe a colour change from pale blue -> royal blue
Phenylamine + bromine water
2,4,6 tribromophenylamine
How do you make a diazonium ion
React an amine with HCl and NaNO2 under 5 degrees
How do you produce an AZO dye
React a diazonium ion with phenol
Characteristics of AZO dyes
Heat resistant
Coloured
Chromophores
What is a chromophore
Organic molecules with double bonds where they absorb different frequencies of light to leave you with a visible colour
