Hinsbergs Method for Characterizing Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Amines

I. Objective
To classify amines using Hinsbergs test

II. Schematic Diagram of Procedure 2 drops aniline +2 drops benzenesulfonyl chloride in micro t.t. observe then +1 mL 10% NaOH soln dropwise

test alkalinity of the solution using litmus paper

shake t.t. after each addition

cool soln and decant supernatant liquid and retain residue

label residue as Residue A (liquid or solid? lighter or heavier than alkaline solution?)

+5%HCl to filtrate (crystal formation dapat!)

test solubility of residue A in H2O and in 5% HCl

Repeat above procedures using diethylamine and triethylamine

Reagent/Product Structure Physical Properties Hazards Eye: May cause lacrimation (tearing), blurred vision, and photophobia. Skin: Causes moderate skin irritation. Ingestion: May cause central nervous system depression, convulsions, coma, and possible death due to respiratory paralysis. Inhalation: May cause methemoglobinemia, cyanosis (bluish discoloration of skin), convulsions, tachycardia, dyspnea (labored breathing), and death. Eye: Causes eye burns. Vapors may cause eye irritation. Skin: Causes skin burns. May be absorbed through the skin in harmful amounts. Prolonged or repeated contact may dry/defat the skin and cause irritation. Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. Inhalation: Inhalation may produce coughing, nausea, and pulmonary edema. Eye: Causes eye burns. Lachrymator (substance which increases the flow of

tears). Skin: Harmful if absorbed through the skin. Causes skin burns. Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. Inhalation: Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. Vapors may cause lung injury. May cause central nervous system effects. Extreme exposures could result in a build-up of fluid in the lungs (pulmonary edema). Inhalation: Causes damage of the upper respiratory tract. Symptoms may include sneezing, sore throat or runny nose. Ingestion: Swallowing may cause severe burns of mouth, throat, and stomach. Severe scarring of tissue and death may result. Skin Contact: Contact with skin can cause irritation or severe burns and scarring with greater exposures. Eye Contact: Causes irritation of eyes, and with greater exposures it can cause burns that may result in permanent impairment of vision, even blindness. Inhalation: Inhalation of vapors can cause coughing, choking,

inflammation of the nose, throat, and upper respiratory tract. Ingestion: Swallowing hydrochloric acid can cause immediate pain and burns of the mouth, throat, esophagus and gastrointestinal tract. Skin Contact: Can cause redness, pain, and severe skin burns. Eye Contact: Contact may cause severe burns and permanent eye damage. Eye: Causes eye burns. Skin: Causes skin burns. May cause an allergic reaction in certain individuals. Ingestion: Causes gastrointestinal tract burns. May cause perforation of the digestive tract. May be harmful if swallowed. Inhalation: Causes chemical burns to the respiratory tract. May cause pulmonary edema and severe respiratory disturbances.
