AMIDES & AMINES
Introduction
• So far, we’ve dealt with compounds
containing C, H, and O atoms.
• Many naturally produced compounds also
contain nitrogen.
• Organic compounds that contain nitrogen
can either be called amines or amides
AMINES
• Can be thought of as ammonia (NH3), with one,
two or all three of its hydrogens substituted by
alkyl groups
• The number of substituted alkyl groups allow for
primary (10), secondary (20), and tertiary (30)
sub-classifications (similar to alcohols)
Common Names for Amines:
Text method
1. Identify the largest alkyl group attached
to the nitrogen atom as the parent alkane
2. Replace the -e at the end of the parent
alkane with the new ending –amine.
Include a position number if required
Butan-1-amine
IUPAC Names for 20 and 30
Amines
• The IUPAC names for 20 and 30 amines include
the N- prefix to denote the substituted groups on
the N atom of the amino group.
• The larger alkyl group determines the main
chain
• If the structure is a 30 amine, one group must be
considered the main chain, while the other
groups are considered branches
• Additional side chains are listed in alphabetical
order as normal
N-methylbutan-1-amine
N,N-dimethylmethanamine
5-chloro-N,N-dimethylhexan-3-amine
Properties of Amines
• N-C and N-H bonds are polar, thereby allowing
for dipole-dipole and London forces.
• In addition, N-H bonds allow for hydrogen
bonding. Note that N-H hydrogen bonds are
weaker than O-H hydrogen bonds
Preparing Amines: Substitution
Reactions
• Amines are prepared by the reaction of
ammonia with an alkyl halide (let X represent
any halogen)
AMIDES
Structure and Properties
• Contain the amide linkage as their functional
group.

•Structurally similar to esters.
•Amide linkage is very significant in biological systems
as the forming and breaking of these bonds give
specificity to proteins.
Naming Amides
• Locate the part of the amide that contains the
C=O group. Name the parent carboxylic acid
that this part derives from. The C=O group is
always given position number 1
• Replace the –oic acid ending of the name of
the parent acid with the suffic –amide
Ethanoic acid
2
1
ethanamide
Amide Branches
• If the amide is a 20 amide, name the alkyl
group and give it location letter N- to
indicate that it is bonded to the nitrogen
atom
• If the amide is a 30 amide, place the alkyl
groups in alphabetical order. Use location
letter N- before each group to indicate that
it is bonded to the nitrogen. If the two
groups are identical, use N,N-

Preparation
• Amides are made through a condensation
reaction of a carboxylic acid and a primary or
secondary amine.
• Tertiary amines can not be used as they do
not contain a hydrogen.

carbon
• Amino acids are bifunctional because they
contain both an amino group (NH2) and a
carboxyl group (COOH).
• Depending on what they are mixed with,
amino acids can act as either an acid or a
base.
• The amino and carboxyl groups are attached
to the same carbon ( carbon).
• The 20 different amino acids only differ in
their side chains (R group).
