For Hexamethylenediamine, what is its IUPAC name?
Table 9.1 in the NCERT context lists 'Hexamethylenediamine' with the IUPAC name 'Hexane-1,6-diamine'.
When are amines considered 'simple' and 'mixed'?
The NCERT text states, 'Amines are said to be ‘simple’ when all the alkyl or aryl groups are the same, and ‘mixed’ when they are different.'
What is the IUPAC name for $(CH_3)_3N$?
Table 9.1 in the NCERT context lists 'Trimethylamine' with the IUPAC name 'N,N-Dimethylmethanamine'.
What kind of amino group is present in biologically active compounds like adrenaline and ephedrine?
The NCERT text mentions, 'Two biologically active compounds, namely adrenaline and ephedrine, both containing secondary amino group, are used to increase blood pressure.'
Identify the primary amine from the following options:
Propan-2-amine ($CH_3CH(NH_2)CH_3$) has only one alkyl group attached to the nitrogen, making it a primary amine. N-Methylethanamine ($CH_3CH_2NHCH_3$) and N,N-Dimethylethanamine ($CH_3CH_2N(CH_3)_2$) are secondary and tertiary amines respectively. Trimethylamine ($(CH_3)_3N$) is a tertiary amine.
In arylamines, specifically in the IUPAC system, how is the naming convention applied to the benzene ring?
The NCERT text states, 'While naming arylamines according to IUPAC system, suffix ‘e’ of arene is replaced by ‘amine’. Thus in IUPAC system, $C_6H_5–NH_2$ is named as benzenamine.'
What is the common name for 2-Methylaniline?
Table 9.1 in the NCERT context lists 'o-Toluidine' as the common name for '2-Methylaniline'.
Which of the following compounds contains a tertiary amino group and is used as an antihistaminic drug?
The NCERT text mentions, 'Benadryl, a well known antihistaminic drug also contains tertiary amino group.'
Which of the following represents the general formula for diazonium salts?
According to the NCERT text, 'The diazonium salts have the general formula $ ext{R} ext{N}_2^+ ext{X}^-$ where R stands for an aryl group and $ ext{X}^-$ ion may be $ ext{Cl}^-$, $ ext{Br}^-$, $ ext{HSO}_4^-$, $ ext{BF}_4^-$, etc.'
Which of the following is NOT a common anion found in diazonium salts?
The NCERT text states that the $ ext{X}^-$ ion in diazonium salts 'may be $ ext{Cl}^-$, $ ext{Br}^-$, $ ext{HSO}_4^-$, $ ext{BF}_4^-$, etc.' $ ext{OH}^-$ is not listed as a common anion in the general formula, although it can replace the diazo group in a reaction.
