Why are amines nucleophiles?

Why are amines nucleophiles?

A nucleophile is an electron-pair donor. Nucleophiles are strongly attracted to electron-deficient atoms, which are usually marked as partially positive (δ+\delta+δ+).

Step-by-step lessons on AQA A Level Chemistry Nucleophilic properties (A-level only). Each one builds up to exam-style questions. Build confidence with atomic structure, bonding and moles calculations early on, since these underpin the more demanding organic mechanisms, equilibrium and practical-analysis topics that dominate Year 2.
