alleryWhich amines have no intermolecular association through hydrogen bonding?
ATertiary amines
BTerritorial amines
CTerminated amines
DTerrestrial amines
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Tertiary amines
1. Hydrogen bonding needs a hydrogen attached to the nitrogen.
2. One class of amine has no such hydrogen left.
3. Tertiary amines do not have intermolecular association due to the absence of hydrogen atom available for hydrogen bond formation.
4. So tertiary amines cannot associate this way.
