REMARKS 

                                    (DESCRIPTION OF AMINE)









                        
Amine 

                        is a group of basic organic compounds derived by replacement 

                        of one (primary amines), two (secondary amines), or 

                        three (tertiary amines) of the hydrogen atoms in ammonia 

                        (NH3) by alkyl or aryl group. Primary amines contain 

                        the functional group -NH2 (called amino group). Aromatic 

                        amines also exist, such as phenylamine, which are important 

                        for the production of diazonium salts. They dissociate 

                        in water (some very weakly). Synthetic amines are made 

                        mostly by reaction of alcohols with ammonia, catalyzed 

                        by metals( nickel or copper) or metal oxide at high 

                        temperature. Hexamethylenediamine used in the manufacture 

                        of nylon-6,6 is prepared by catalytic addition of hydrogen 

                        to nitriles. Amines are bases and react with acids to 

                        give salts and with acid anhydrides to form amides. 

                        Amine Salts are crystalline substances that are readily 

                        soluble in water. Many insoluble alkaloids (e.g. quinine 

                        and atropine) are used medicinally in the form of soluble 

                        salts. If alkali (sodium hydroxide) 

                        is added to solutions of such salts the free amine is 

                        liberated. Amines offer many applications include in 

                        insecticides, dyestuffs (the best known being aniline), 

                        pharmaceuticals, and corrosion inhibitors.
