MCQ
The correct order of the basic strength of methyl substitited amines in aqueous solution is:
  • A
    (CH3​)2​NH > CH3​NH2​ > (CH3​)3​N
  • B
    (CH3​)3​N > CH3​NH2​ > (CH3​)2​NH
  • C
    (CH3​)3​N > (CH3​)2​NH > CH3​NH2​
  • D
    CH3​NH2​ > (CH3​)2​NH > (CH3​)3​N

Answer

  1. (CH3​)2​NH > CH3​NH2​ > (CH3​)3​N

Explanation:

In aqueous solution, electron donating inductive effect, solvation effect (H-bonding) and steric hindrance all together affect basic strength of substituted amines.

Basic character:

$(\text{CH}_3)_2\text{NH}>\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2>(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 2^\circ\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 1^\circ\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3^\circ$
