Question

Amines which are bonded in Alkyl group are:

• A. primary amines
• B. secondary amines
• C. tertiary amines
• D. quaternary amines

Answer 1

The correct option is A primary amines

Amines are of three types, primary, secondary and tertiory. Primary amines are those which directlr attached to one carbon as $C{H}_{3}N{H}_2$ or $RN{H}_2$. Secondary amines are those which attached to two more carbon atoms as $C_2{H}_5-NH-C_2{H}_5$ or $R_{2}NH$ whereas in tertiory amines all valency of nitrogen are satisfied by alkyl groupe $R_{3}N$. All the four amines are as shown.
