Study These Flashcards
A

Nucleophilic Substitution

25
Quaternary Ammonium ions have long ____ hydrocarbon chains which are ____ in water
Non-Polar | Not Soluble
26
Type of Reaction: Nitriles to Primary Aliphatic Amines
Reduction
27
Why are Aromatic Amines Weaker Bases than Ammonia?
Lone Pair on N is less able to accept H⁺ as it is Delocalised into the Benzene ring (e⁻ density on N decreases)
28
Quaternary Ammonium Ions are ____ charged (____) | The Ionic region is ____ in water
Positively Cationic Soluble
29
Why are 1° Aliphatic Amines Stronger Bases than Ammonia
Lone Pair on N is more able to accept H⁺ as it is due to Positive Inductive Effect (e⁻ density on N increases)
30
