Questions Related to organic compounds with functional group containing nitrogen

Which of the following is the tertiary amine ?

  1. $CH _3N(CH _3) _2$

  2. $N(CH _3) _3$

  3. A,B

  4. $CH _3NH _2$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$CH _3N(CH _3) _2$ and $N(CH _3) _3$ are tertiary amines tertiary amines have no hydrogen atom and three alkyl or aryl groups attached to the nitrogen. Hence option  C is correct.

Which of the following is a secondary amine ?

  1. $CH _3CH _2NH _2$

  2. $CH _3CH _2N(CH _3) _2$

  3. $CH _3CH _2NHCH _3$

  4. $CH _3CH _2H _2CNH _2$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$CH _3CH _2NHCH _3$ is a secondary amine. Secondary amines have one hydrogen atom and two alkyl or aryl groups attached to the nitrogen. 

Hence option C is correct.

Which of the following is the primary amine :

  1. $CH _3NH _2$

  2. $CH _3NHCH _3$

  3. $(CH _3) _3N$

  4. None


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$CH _3NH _2$ is primaryamine. Primary amines  have two hydrogen atoms and one alkyl or aryl group attached to the nitrogen to form the amine or amino group $NH _2$. Hence option A is correct.

Ethyl dimethyl amine is :

  1. tertiary amine

  2. primary amine

  3. secondary amine

  4. None


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Ethyl dimethyl amine is tertiary amine.Ethyl dimethyl amine have no hydrogen atom and three alkyl or aryl groups attached to the nitrogen. tertiary amines have no hydrogen atom and three alkyl or aryl groups attached to the nitrogen. Hence option A is correct.

The elements present in a tertiary amine with two phenyl groups are:

  1. carbon and nitrogen

  2. carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen

  3. carbon, nitrogen and oxygen

  4. carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
Tertiary amine has 3 carbon atoms bonded directly to the nitrogen atom
Thus the elements are carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen.

  1. Chain isomerism

  2. Metamerism

  3. Position isomerism

  4. All of the above.


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

The amine of the formula $C _4H _{11}N$ shows chain  isomerism, metamerism, position  isomerism as well as functional group  isomerism.

Phenyl amine is involved importantly in synthesis of:

  1. dyes

  2. medicines

  3. drugs

  4. capsules


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Phenyl amines are important industrially for the production of dyes.

In the given compound A,C and A,D are exbhits which of the following isomerism :

(a) $CH _3-CH _2-CH _2 - CH _2NH _2$
Butanamine $(1^o)$

(b) $CH _3-CH _2-\overset{NH _2}{\overset{|}{C}H} - CH _3$ 
Butan-2-amine $(1^o)$

(c) $CH _3-\overset{CH _3}{\overset{|}{C}H} - CH _2-NH _2$
2-Methylpropanamine $(1^o)$

(d) $CH _3-!!!!\underset{\quad CH _3}{\underset{|}{\overset{\quad CH _3}{\overset{|}{C}}}!!!!-}NH _2$
2-methylpropan-2-amine $(1^o)$

(e) $CH _3-CH _2-CH _2-NH - CH _3$
N-methylpropanamine $(2^o)$

  1. Chain isomerism

  2. position isomerism

  3. Functional isomerism

  4. Metamerism


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

A,C and A,D are exbhits chain isomerism as the pairs are differed in their longest chain. Hence option A is correct.
