amino
adj.
containing an amino group united to a radical (Chemistry)
Amine
Amines are
organic compounds and a type of
functional group that contain
nitrogen as the key atom. Structurally amines resemble
ammonia, wherein one or more
hydrogen atoms are replaced by organic
substituents such as
alkyl and
aryl groups. An important exception to this rule is that compounds of the type RC(O)NR2, where the C(O) refers to a
carbonyl group, are called
amides rather than amines. Amides and amines have different structures and properties, so the distinction is
chemically important. Somewhat confusing is the fact that amines in which an N-H group has been replaced by an N-M group (M = metal) are also called amides. Thus (CH3)2NLi is lithium dimethylamide.
