Amine aromatic, nomenclature

Common nomenclature of simple amines involves presenting the name of the alkyl group followed by the word amine (such as propylamine) this type of nomenclature is acceptable in IUPAC for simple amines. In IUPAC nomenclature, the name is based on the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms followed by the suffix -amine (such as 1-propanamine). Substituents on the carbon chain are located by a number substituents on the nitrogen are located with N (such as N-methyl-1-propanamine). The simplest aromatic amine is aniline.

Amines are used as bases and also as nucleophiles throughout portions of this book. The structure and nomenclature of simple amines were introduced in Chapter 5 (Section 5.6.2), but only a few reactions were discussed that form an amine. Exceptions are the formation and reactions of the aromatic amine, aniline (see Chapter 21, Sections 21.2 and 21.3), and the hydride reduction of nitriles and amides in Chapter 19 (Section 19.2.2). This chapter will first review some fundamentals of amine chemistry and then proceed into new areas.
