Measures of Basicity

• The basicity of amines may be measured and compared by using any of these values:

• 1) Kb

• 2) pKb • 3) Ka of conjugate acid• 4) pKa of conjugate acid

Basicity Constant (Kb) and pKb

• Kb is the equilibrium constant for the reaction:

• Aniline (reactant) is stabilized by conjugation of nitrogen lone pair with ring system.

• This stabilization is lost on protonation.

•Increasing delocalization makes diphenylamine a weaker base than aniline, and triphenylamine a weaker base than diphenylamine.

Effect of Substituents on Basicity of Arylamines

•1. Alkyl groups on the ring increase basicity, butonly slightly (less than 1 pK unit).

•2. Electron withdrawing groups, especially orthoand/or para to amine group, decrease basicityand can have a large effect.

•Lone pair on amine nitrogen is conjugated with p-nitro group—more delocalized than in aniline itself. Delocalization lost on protonation.

Effect is Cumulative

•Aniline is 3800 times more basic thanp-nitroaniline.
