  2. Nitrous acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrous_acid

    Nitrous acid (molecular formula H N O 2) is a weak and monoprotic acid known only in solution, in the gas phase, and in the form of nitrite (NO − 2) salts. [3] It was discovered by Carl Wilhelm Scheele, who called it "phlogisticated acid of niter". Nitrous acid is used to make diazonium salts from amines.

  3. Nitro-Mannich reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro-Mannich_reaction

    Elimination of water forms in-situ an imine, which then reacts with the nitro group (as a nitronate ion) to form a beta-nitroamine that can subsequently react further forming one of the two adducts. Although this is the first report of the nitro-Mannich reaction, no yields of the products were given.

  4. Amine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amine

    Amine. In chemistry, amines (/ ə ˈ m iː n, ˈ æ m iː n /, [1] [2] UK also / ˈ eɪ m iː n / [3]) are compounds and functional groups that contain a basic nitrogen atom with a lone pair.Formally, amines are derivatives of ammonia (NH 3 (in which the bond angle between the nitrogen and hydrogen is 170°), wherein one or more hydrogen atoms have been replaced by a substituent such as an ...

  5. N-(1-Naphthyl)ethylenediamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-(1-Naphthyl)ethylenediamine

    Sample containing nitrite ions is first neutralized and then treated with dilute hydrochloric acid at 0 - 5 °C to give nitrous acid. Then an excess but fixed volume of sulfanilamide and N-(1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine dihydrochloride solution is added.

  6. Ethylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylamine

    Ethylamine, also known as ethanamine, is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 NH 2. This colourless gas has a strong ammonia-like odor. It condenses just below room temperature to a liquid miscible with virtually all solvents. It is a nucleophilic base, as is typical for amines. Ethylamine is widely used in chemical industry and ...

  7. Demjanov rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demjanov_rearrangement

    The reaction process begins with diazotization of the amine by nitrous acid. The diazonium group is a good leaving group, forming nitrogen gas when displaced from the organic structure. This displacement can occur via a rearrangement (path A), in which one of the sigma bonds adjacent to the diazo group migrates. This migration results in an ...

  8. Mannich reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannich_reaction

    The Schiff base is an electrophile which reacts in a second step in an electrophilic addition with an enol formed from a carbonyl compound containing an acidic alpha-proton. The Mannich reaction is a condensation reaction. [4]: 140 In the Mannich reaction, primary or secondary amines or ammonia react with formaldehyde to form a Schiff base ...

  9. Hofmann rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofmann_rearrangement

    The Hofmann rearrangement (Hofmann degradation) is the organic reaction of a primary amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom. [1] [2] [3] The reaction involves oxidation of the nitrogen followed by rearrangement of the carbonyl and nitrogen to give an isocyanate intermediate.
