184) Explain why cyclohexylamine is a stronger base than aniline.

In aniline, the electron pair on N is delocalized over the aromatic ring through resonance: this has the effect of decreasing the electron density at the nitrogen atom, relative to cyclohexylamine, in which no such resonance delocalization can occur, leading to lower base strength for aniline.

In cyclohexylamine, the N atom is attached to an sp3 carbon, while in aniline the N atom is attached to an sp2 carbon: an sp2 carbon typically exerts a stronger electron-withdrawing effect, effectively decreasing the electron density on the nitrogen atom, resulting in weaker base strength.

185) Using resonance theory, explain why guanidine is one of the strongest organic bases.

The protonated form (conjugate acid) of guanidine is stabilized through three equivalent resonance structures (shown), making it a very weak acid or the conjugate base a strong base.

186) List the following compounds in order of increasing basicity (least to most), and explain your reasoning.

Reasoning – basicity follows the order of decreasing electronegativity of the nitrogen atom. Electronegativity of nitrogen is a function of hybridization, with the more s-character in the hybrid orbital, the higher the electronegativity. In I the hybridization of nitrogen is sp, while in II it is sp2 and in III, sp3.

206) Before modern spectroscopic methods were developed, structures of many complex amines were elucidated by examining the products obtained during Hofmann elimination of their quaternary ammonium hydroxides. The typical procedure involved the following steps, repeated as necessary, depending on whether the amine was primary, secondary or tertiary, until the final product was nitrogen-free: i) CH3I (excess); ii) Ag2O, H2O; iii) heat. What product(s) is (are) likely to be formed if 3,4-dimethylpiperidine is subjected to the above procedure?
