Organic Chemistry Synthesis Possibilities Discussion

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the synthesis possibilities in organic chemistry, specifically addressing the conditions required for reactions involving amines. It is established that no reaction occurs under the initial conditions presented. Participants suggest that oxidation of the amine to either an amide or imine is necessary to facilitate further reactions.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of organic reaction mechanisms
  • Knowledge of amine oxidation processes
  • Familiarity with amide and imine structures
  • Basic principles of organic synthesis
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the mechanisms of amine oxidation to amides and imines
  • Explore specific reagents and conditions for amine oxidation
  • Study the role of reaction conditions in organic synthesis
  • Investigate alternative pathways for synthesizing compounds from amines
USEFUL FOR

Chemistry students, organic chemists, and researchers involved in synthetic organic chemistry who are looking to deepen their understanding of amine reactions and synthesis strategies.

TL;DR
I was confused on whether the product would be A or B . I think it should be B because it seems more stable than A and even by reaction mechanism logic , B seems to be more likely because the H+ will be a electrophile and attach to N which has a lone pair and form NH2+ and break off the CH3 bond and form CH3+ which goes to OH- and forms methyl alcohol but i wanted to confirm just in case , i am still in high school learning a bit on my own of advanced

What would be the conditions required ?

Not sure. You would probably have to oxidize the amine (either to amide or imine) and find a way to work from there.
