Amines - Preparation (A-Level IB Chemistry)

Outlining the preparation of amines, by the reaction of ammonia with halogenoalkanes (haloalkanes), the reduction of nitriles and the reduction of nitro groups using a reducing agent. Examples are given including the forming of primary, secondary and tertiary amines.

For AQA, OCR (A), Edexcel and CIE.
