Acylation
|
Addition of an acyl group, usually replacinga H atom. Acylation of an amine gives an amide.
|
|
Acylation-reduction
|
a method for synthesizing amines by acylating ammonia or an amine, then reducing the amide.
|
|
Amine
|
a derivative of ammonia with one or more alkyl or aryl groups bonded to the nitrogen atom.
|
|
Amine oxide
|
an amine with a fourth bond to an O atom. In the amine oxide, the N atom bears a pos charge, and the O atom bears a neg charge.
|
|
Ammonium salt (amine salt)
|
a derivative of an amine with a postively charged N atom having 4 bonds. An amine is protonated by an acid to give an ammonium salt.
|
|
Azide
|
a compound having the azido group, -N3.
|
|
Cope elimination
|
a variation of the Hofmann elimantion, where a tertiary amine oxice elimantes to an alkene with a hydroxlyamine serving as the leaving group.
|
|
diazo coupling
|
the use of a diazonium salt as an electrophile in electrophilic aromatic substitution.
|
|
diazotizationn of an amine
|
the reaction of a primary amine with nitrous acid to form a diazonium salt.
|
|
exhaustive alkylation
|
treatment of an amine with an excess of an alkylating agent (often methyl iodide) to form the quaternary ammonium salt.
|
|
Gabriel Amine Synthesis
|
Synthesis of primary amines by alkylation of the potassium salt of phtalimide, foolowed by displacement of the amine by hydrazine.
|
|
Hofmann elimination
|
elimination of a quatenary ammonium hydroxide with an amine as the leaving group. the Hofmann elimination usually gives the LEAST highly substitued alkene.
|
|
hydroxlyamine
|
the compound H2NOH,or generically, an amine in which a hydroxyl group is one of the 3 substiutents bonded to N.
|
|
phase-transfer catalyst
|
a compound (sucha s a quaternary ammonium halide) that is soluble in booth water and organic solvents and that helps reagents move between organic and aqueous phases.
|
|
reductive amination
|
the reduction of an imine or oxime derivative of a ketone or aldehyde.
