Nomenclature of Secondary and Tertiary Amines

Nomenclature of Secondary and Tertiary Amines

The secondary and tertiary amines are derivatives of ammonia, where two and three of its hydrogens are replaced by alkyl groups, respectively. Secondary and tertiary amines can be symmetrical with identical alkyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom or unsymmetrical when more than one type of alkyl group is present. The standard nomenclature of secondary and tertiary amines is similar to the names given to the primary amines. They are generally named alkylamines. As depicted in Figure 1, for...

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)

When proton-coupled carbon-13 spectra are simplified by a broadband proton decoupling technique, structural information about the coupled protons is lost. Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) is a technique that provides information on the number of hydrogens attached to each carbon in a molecule. While the DEPT experiment utilizes complex pulse sequences, the pulse delay and flip angle are specifically manipulated. The resulting signals have different phases depending on...

Structure of Amines

Structure of Amines

The hybridized nitrogen atom in amines possesses a lone pair of electrons and is bound to three substituents with a bond angle of around 108°, which is less than the tetrahedral angle of 109.5°. However, the C–N–H bond angle is slightly larger at 112°, with a carbon–nitrogen bond length of 147 pm. This carbon–nitrogen bond length of of amines is longer than the carbon–oxygen bond of alcohols (143 pm) but shorter than alkanes’ carbon–carbon bond (154 pm). These aspects are illustrated in Figure...

Micelles

Micelles

Micelle formation is an intricate process that hinges on the properties of amphiphilic or amphipathic molecules and the conditions of the system in which they are found. Amphiphilic molecules, which have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) parts, play a critical role in this process.In aqueous environments, these molecules arrange themselves such that their hydrophilic heads are turned towards the water phase, while their hydrophobic tails are oriented away...

Crystal Chemistry
Solid-State Chemistry
Supramolecular Chemistry

Background:

Understanding the self-assembly of ionic compounds is crucial in materials science.
Hydrogen bonding plays a significant role in directing crystal packing and properties.

Purpose of the Study:

To elucidate the crystal structure of the title compound, C(15)H(34)N(+)·CH(3)SO(4) (-).
To investigate the intermolecular interactions governing the solid-state arrangement.

Main Methods:

Single-crystal X-ray diffraction was employed to determine the crystal structure.
Analysis of hydrogen bonding networks was performed.

Main Results:

The crystal structure consists of quaternary ammonium cations (C(15)H(34)N(+)) and methylsulfate anions (CH(3)SO(4)(-)).
Cations and anions are interconnected by strong N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
These interactions lead to the formation of extended layers parallel to the (001) crystallographic plane.

Conclusions:

The hydrogen bonding network dictates a layered supramolecular architecture in the crystal.
This structural motif is fundamental to the compound's solid-state behavior.
