This question is about the preparation and reactions of aliphatic amines.

An incomplete equation for Step 1 in the reaction between 1-bromopropane and an amine to form an ammonium salt is shown below:

CH3CH2CH2Br+Amine⟶[CH3CH2CH2NH2CH2CH3]+Br−\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{Br} + \text{Amine} \longrightarrow [\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{NH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3]^+ \text{Br}^-CH3​CH2​CH2​Br+Amine⟶[CH3​CH2​CH2​NH2​CH2​CH3​]+Br−
