Hinsburg Test for Amines You will react the amine with a sulfonyl chloride forming an insoluble sulfonamide of a primary or secondary amine or the soluble salt of a tertiary amine. The insoluble sulfonamide of a primary amine will be made soluble in base (via removal of the slightly acidic proton on N) but that of a secondary amine will not (no proton on N to remove). • Use aniline, N-methylaniline and N,N- dimethylaniline for knowns.
