22.2 Basicity of Amines | Organic Chemistry

Chad provides a succinct lesson on the basicity of amines. Amines are the most common organic functional group to act as bases. Ultimately, the effects of aromaticity, resonance, and hybridization on the basicity of amines is examined so that the relative basicity of amines can be determined.

Thank you so much!! I’m kinda lost when it comes to Organic Chemistry but your video helped a lot!

[@ChadsPrep]

Excellent, Michelle!

[@DG-ui7eq]

Thank you so much This was really useful and perfectly explained The pase was perfect Thank you so much ❤

Where in order of importance is the inductive effect of electron donating/withdrawing groups?

[@fatimahzakariyyah7473]

It's fantastic But pls explain further

[@TimeAce]

Actually just cleared up my largest confusion in Ochem - tysm

[@ChadsPrep]

Excellent - you're welcome!

chad i love u i swear i would be so gone in organic chem if it wasnt for u

[@ChadsPrep]

Glad the videos are helpful!

What's a stronger base, a normal pyrrole or imidazole? I'm seeing people on reddit/the internet say it's the imidazole, but wouldn't it be more stable by resonance? They are both aromatic. Thanks

[@ChadsPrep]

They are correct as it is the imidazole. The lone pair on the nitrogen in pyrrole is part of the aromatic pi system and very stable. But imidazole has 2 nitrogen atoms. The lone pair on 1 is part of the aromatic pi system and is also very stable. But the lone pair on the second nitrogen is in an sp2 hybrid orbital and is NOT part of the aromatic pi system. This lone pair is considerably less stable and more basic. Hope this helps!

Sir this is nice but may you please slow down a bit ..you're a bit fast

[@ChadsPrep]

I get that a lot - my best souggestion is to slow down the playback to the speed that works best for you. Hope that helps!
