how to do numbering and naming for AMINE compound?
It's the same for any other functional group but with amine at the end instead. The number tells you which carbon the amine group is on. E.g: \[CH _{3}CHNH_{2}CH_{2}CH_{3}\Longleftrightarrow 2-butanamine\]
Amines are named in several ways. Typically, the compound is given the prefix "amino-" or the suffix: "-amine." The prefix "N-" shows substitution on the nitrogen atom. An organic compound with multiple amino groups is called a diamine, triamine, tetraamine and so forth. Lower amines are named with the suffix -amine.
