Organic Chemistry Lecture 19b
Subject:
Chapter 19 * Alkylation of Amines by Alkyl Halides Even if just one equivalent of the halide is added, some amine molecules will react once, some will react twice, and some will react three times (to give the tetraalkylammonium salt). Chapter 19 * Examples of Useful Alkylations Exhaustive alkylation to form the tetraalkylammonium salt. Reaction with large excess of NH3 to form the primary amine.

This reaction is a nucleophilic acyl substitution. Chapter 19 *
