Q

Acid base amine reactions

A

Bond to H+/proton acceptor
Dative covalent bond
e- C becomes nucleophile
Higher e- density/lp availability/base strength
Proton accepting/lp donation more likely

Q

Basicity

A

Ka/pKa
Ability to donate lp to H2O H+
Increase no. Alkyl groups around around N, increase e-s released, increase proton acceptance, increase lp donation to H+
