If the substituents (other than hydrogen atoms) are alkyl groups, the resulting compounds are termed\u00a0<em>alkyl amines<\/em>. If one or more substituents is an aryl group, the compounds are termed\u00a0<em>aryl amines<\/em>. Amines are commonly categorized as primary, secondary, or\u00a0tertiary, depending on whether the nitrogen atom is bonded to one, two, or three alkyl or aryl groups, respectively. The nitrogen atom is bonded to its hydrogen atoms and alkyl groups by sigma (\u03c3) bonds, but the nitrogen atom also bears a nonbonded electron pair. The three \u03c3 bonds and nonbonded electron pair are oriented around the nitrogen atom in a distorted tetrahedral geometry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In some compounds, the nonbonded electron pair on the nitrogen atom is replaced by a fourth \u03c3 bond to a hydrogen atom or to an alkyl or aryl group. The resulting compound, called a quaternary ammonium\u00a0salt, has a positive charge on the nitrogen atom and a tetrahedral arrangement of groups around the nitrogen atom. Amines are very common organic molecules, and many are physiologically active. Amphetamine, for example, is a\u00a0central nervous system\u00a0stimulant and acts as an antidepressant. Amines are particularly valuable because of their ability to act as bases, a property that is a\u00a0consequence\u00a0of the ability of amines to accept hydrogen atoms from acidic molecules.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amines are functional group compounds that contain at least one nitrogen atom bonded to hydrogen atoms or to alkyl or aryl groups.
