Question 51 Mark
Why cannot aromatic primary amines be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis?
Answer

Gabrielphthalimide synthesis is used for the preparation of aliphatic primary amines. It involves nucleophilic substitution $\left(\mathrm{SN}_2\right)$ of alkyl halides by the anion formed by the phthalimide.

But aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion formed by the phthalimide.

Hence, aromatic primary amines cannot be prepared by this process.

Question 81 Mark
Account for the following:
Although amino group is o– and p– directing in aromatic electrophilic substitution reactions, aniline on nitration gives a substantial amount of m-nitroaniline.
Answer
The nitration of aniline is carried out using conc. $\mathrm{HNO}_3$ and $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$. However, in the presence of conc. $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4$, aniline forms aniline hydrogen sulphate in which the anilinium ion, $\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_5 \mathrm{NH}_3{ }^{+}$is meta directing because the positive charge on the nitrogen attracts electrons from the benzene ring.

Question 141 Mark
Give plausible explanation for each of the following:
Why do primary amines have higher boiling point than tertiary amines?
Answer
Amines are polar compounds and can form H-bonds as proton acceptors. Only primary and secondary amines can form intermolecular H-bonding due to the presence of H atom at N atom. Tertiary amines cannot form intermolecular in-bonding. Primary amines are higher boiling due to the presence of a stronger intermolecular force of attraction due to H-bonding.

Question 211 Mark
Account for the following:
$pK_b$ of aniline is more than that of methylamine.
Answer
It is because, in aniline, the $NH_2$ group is attached directly to the benzene ring. It results in the unshared electron pair of the nitrogen atom to be in conjugation with the benzene ring and thus making it less available for protonation.
on another hand, in the case of methylamine (due to the +I effect of a methyl group), the electron density on the N-atom is increased. As a result, aniline is less basic than methylamine. Thus, $pk_b$ of aniline is more than that of methylamine.

Give plausible explanation for each of the following:
Why are amines less acidic than alcohols of comparable molecular masses?
Answer
Oxygen in alcohol is more electro negative than nitrogen in amines.
 RC—H bond in alcohol is more polar with $^{δ+}$ charge on.
$RO^{δ-}H^{δ+}$ as compared to RN—H bond in Alcohols can loose proton to some extent but are proton acceptors.

Answer
Hoffmann bromamide degradation reaction: Hoffman develops a method for preparation of primary amines by treating an amide with bromine in an aqueous or ethanolic solution of sodium hydroxide.
In this reaction migration of an alkyl or aryl group takes place from carbonyl carbon of the amide to the nitrogen atom. The amine so formed contains one carbon less than that present in the amide.

Question 261 Mark
Account for the following:
Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts reaction.
Answer
A Friedel-crafts reaction is carried out in the presence of $\mathrm{AlCl}_3$. but $\mathrm{AlCl}_3$ is acidic in nature, while aniline is a strong base. Thus, aniline reacts with $\mathrm{AlCl}_3$ to form a salt. Due to the positive charge on the N -atom, electrophilic substitution in the benzene ring is deactivated. Hence, aniline does not under go the Friedel-crafts reactions.
Aniline does not under Friedel-Craft reaction (alkylation and acetylation) due to the salt formation with aluminium chloride, the Lewis acid which is used as a catalyst. Due to this, the nitrogen of aniline acquires a positive charge and hence acts as a strong deactivating group for further reaction.

Question 271 Mark
Give one chemical test to distinguish between the following pairs of compounds. Ethylamine and aniline.
Answer

Ethylamine and aniline: To the ice cold solution of both these compounds prepared in excess of dilute HCl, add ice cold solution of sodium nitrite in water and of β—Naphthol (2—Naphthol) prepared in diluted in sodium hydroxide solution.
Further, cool the reaction mixture in both the cases. The mixture which forms a brilliant orange dye (azodye) contains aniline while the one in which no dye is formed has ethylamine present in it.

Question 281 Mark
Account for the following:
Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines.
Answer
Gabriel phthalimide synthesis results in the formation of primary amine only. secondary or tertiary amines are not formed in this synthesis. thus, the pure primary amine can be obtained. Therefore, Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines.
Phthalimide is alkylated with alkyl or benzyl halide and then hydrolysed or hydrazinolysis to get pure primary amine. In this method, phthalic acid is produced which can be again converted into phthalimide and used over and over again.
