General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry - 4th edition, Chapter 11, Problem 30P

Concept introduction:

To add lone pair to an atom, first find the valence electron of the particular atom. After that find how many electrons are used in bond formation and then put the remaining valence electron on that particular atom.

The following table should be used while determining the shape around a carbon atom.

Draw a scheme separating an amine of p-bromoaniline from p-dimethoxybenzene
Alkaloids are basic nitrogen-containing compounds of plant origin, many of which are physiologically active when administered to humans. Ingestion of coniine, isolated from water hemlock, can cause weakness, labored respiration, paralysis, and eventually death. Coniine is the toxic substance in the “poison hemlock” used in the death of Socrates. In small doses, nicotine is an addictive stimulant. In larger doses, it causes depression, nausea, and vomiting. In still larger doses, it is a deadly poison. Solutions of nicotine in water are used as insecticides. Cocaine is a central nervous system stimulant obtained from the leaves of the coca plant.Classify each amino group in these alkaloids according to type (primary, secondary, tertiary, aliphatic, aromatic, heterocyclic).
Tyramine is an alkaloid found in mistletoe and ripe cheese. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of the central nervous system.
