Question
Primary amines have higher boiling points than tertiary amines why?
✓
Answer
Due to the presence of two H – atom on N – atoms of primary amines they undergo extensive intermolecular H – bonding while tertiary amines due to the absence of a H – atom on the N – atom do not undergo H – bonding. As a result primary amines have higher boiling points than tertiary amines.
