Question

Draw structural formulas for each:

the four primary (1) amines with the molecular formula C₄H₁₁N

Answer 1

To draw the structural formulas for the four primary amines with the molecular formula C₄H₁₁N, we need to identify the different isomers that can be formed. The four primary amines are N-propylamine, N-isopropylamine, N-butylamine, and N-isobutylamine.

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw the structural formulas for the four primary amines with the molecular formula C₄H₁₁N, we need to identify the different isomers that can be formed. The molecular formula C₄H₁₁N indicates that there are four carbon atoms, eleven hydrogen atoms, and one nitrogen atom in the compound.

The four primary amines that can be formed with this molecular formula are:

• N-propylamine: CH₃CH₂CH₂NH₂
• N-isopropylamine: (CH₃)₂CHNH₂
• N-butylamine: CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂
• N-isobutylamine: (CH₃)₂CHCH₂NH₂
