Introduction
Amines is an important chapter of Class 12 Organic
Chemistry that deals with organic compounds containing one or more amino
(–NH2) groups. This chapter explains the classification, nomenclature,
preparation, physical properties, and chemical reactions of amines.
Reactions such as Hoffmann bromamide reaction, Gabriel phthalimide synthesis,
diazotisation, and coupling reactions are extremely important for CBSE Board
examinations and for reaction-based MCQs in NEET and
JEE (Main).
