Which of the following isomers has highest boiling point?

  1. A tert-Butylamine
  2. B Ethyldimethylamine
  3. C Diethylamine
  4. D n-Butylamine
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) n-Butylamine

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Based on the extent of the intermolecular forces the observed order of boiling points of isomeric amines is: primary amine \(\gt\) secondary amine \(\gt\) tertiary amine.
Hence, n-butyl amine has the highest boiling point.
