The decreasing order of basic strength of the above amines and ammonia follows the following order :
`(C_(2)H_(5))_(2)NHgtC_(2)H_(5)NH_(2)gtNH_(3)C_(6)H_(5)NH_(2)`
Amines also react with benzoyl choride `(C_(6)H_(5)COCl)`. This reaction is known as benzoylation.
`CH_(3)NH_(2)+C_(6)H_(5)COCl toCH_(3)NHCOC_(6)H_(5)+HCl`
Methanamine Benzoyl chloride N - Methylbenzamide
What do you think is the product of the reaction of amines with carboxylic acids ? They form salts with amines at room temperature.
