...Amines are organic compounds and functional groups that contain a basic nitrogen atom with a lone pair. Amines are derivative of ammonia, wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by a substituent such as an alkyl or aryl group. Important amines include amino acids, biogenic amines, trimethylamine, and aniline; see Amines for a list of amines. Inorganic derivatives of ammonia are also called amines, such as chloramine (NClH2). Read full entry

What is one molecule contains I think my problem results
from an uncertainty about the
definition of an amine. Does
an amine only have one lone
pair? Is that what constitutes
an amine? If so, couldn't an
amide be an amine?

An AMIDE is formed when a carbonyl (C = O) bond is adjacent to an amine. A substance like H2N-CH2-CH2-CH2-C(=O)-NH2 is an example of a compound containing both functional groups. H2N-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 — 1-aminobutane or butanamine CH3-CH2-CH2-C(=O)-NH2 — butanamide H2N-CH2-CH2-CH2-C(=O)-NH2 — 4-aminobutanamide Both the amine and amide functional groups have a lone pair on the N atom. However, the lone pair on an amine N is quite basic and so it can be readily protonated or used to form quaternary ammonium salts. The lone pair on an amide N is unreactive to such reactions. H2N-CH2-CH2-CH2-CH3 + HCl → CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-NH3^+ + Cl^- CH3-CH2-CH2-C(=O)-NH2 + HCl → no reaction Chemically, the amide and amine functional groups are distinct... they have different physical properties and behaviours. An amide does not behave like an amine that just happens to be next to a carbonyl - it behaves as an amide. Both amines and amides can have carbon chains attached: CH3-CH2-NH2 — aminoethane or ethylamine or ethanamine (CH3-CH2-)2NH — diethylamine or N-ethylethanamine (CH3-CH2-)3N — triethylamine or N,N-diethylethanamine CH3-CH2-C(=O)-NH2 — propanamide CH3-CH2-C(=O)-NH-CH2-CH3 — N-ethylpropanamide CH3-CH2-C(=O)-N(-CH2-CH3)2 — N,N-diethylpropanamide |

It could possibly be if there is not a compound that is added to the reaction in order to balance off the charge of the oxygen molecules and with acetylides I'm thinking its the bonding of the compounds!! |
