Materials Revolution Flashcards
Amino group
NH2
Ammonia =
NH3
Three main amine properties -
Bases, nucleophile and Ligands
Naming amines
CH3NH2 =
C6H5NH2 =
CH3CH2CH2NH2
Methyl amine
Phenyl amine
Propyl amine
Long chained amines can be ‘amino’‘pentane’ for eg
Aryl group =
Benzene with H substituted
Eg C6H5 phenyl
Nucleophile
Electron pair donor
Primary amines + halogenoalkanes
secondary amines (alkylation reaction)
Amines + acyl chlorides
Acyl action reaction = secondary amide
Primary amide
R- C=O
- NH2
Secondary amide
R’- C=O
- N-H - R
Hydrolysis of amides
C-N bond breaks
Acid = Carboxylic acid and a substituted ammonium ion
Alkaline = amine and carboxylate anion
Polyesters - condensation reaction between
Diols and diCarboxylic acids
Polyamides condensation reaction between
Diamines and diCarboxylic acids
Crystalline regions
Highly ordered chains
Amorphous regions
Randomly arranged chains
