A chemical compound containing nitrogen. Amines are derived from ammonia.

An amine is an organic compound that contains a nitrogen atom bound only to carbon and possibly hydrogen atoms. Examples are methylamine, CH3NH2; dimethylamine, CH3NHCH3; and trimethylamine, (CH3)3N.

a chemical substance in the body whose structure is similar to ammonia; a family of hormones (adrenal medulla - epinephrine & norepinephrine) or neurotransmitters in brain (dopamine, norepinephrin [..]

"compound in which one of the hydrogen atoms of ammonia is replaced by a hydrocarbon radical," 1863, from ammonia + chemical suffix -ine (2).

An amine is a compound in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms in ammonia have been replaced by an organic functional group. Amines are generally weak bases. Further, most amines are organic bases. [..]

noun. A substance compound that houses any number of amino groups- many neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and norepinephrine, apply to this group.

organic compound containing nitrogen (pop)

A basic (alkaline) organic compound that contains nitrogen; general formula, RNH2.

(n) a compound derived from ammonia by replacing hydrogen atoms by univalent hydrocarbon radicals

Materials often used as curing agents for epoxy coatings.

Any carbon compound containing the nitorgen bound only to carbon or hydrogen. The functional group for a primary amine is -NH2, for a secondary amine -NH-, and for a tertiary amine a nitrogen bound the three carbon chains. Amino acids are carbon compounds containing both amine and carboxylic acid groups - e.g., glycine, NH2-CH2-COOH. (Biochemists g [..]

An organic compound containing nitrogen, derived from ammonia, NH3

<biochemistry> An organic compound containing nitrogen, any member of a group of chemical compounds formed from ammonia by replacement of one or more of the hydrogen atoms by organic (hydrocarbon) radicals. The amines are distinguished as primary, secondary and tertiary, according to whether one, two or three hydrogen atoms are replaced. The [..]

  Organic base used in refining operations to absorb acidic gases (H2S, COS, CO2) occurring in process streams. Two common amines are monoethanolamine (MEA) and diethanolamine (DEA).

Chemical used as a solvent to remove hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from hydrocarbon streams

a chemical used to remove impurities from natural gas in order to make the natural gas suitable for pipeline transport.

Organic chemical compound containing one or more nitrogens in -NH2, -NH or -N groups

A nitrogen-containing compound in which at least one hydrogen atom has been replaced with a hydrocarbon radical.

A chemical use in water treatment as a filming or neutralizing agent to protect the metal parts.
