Understand the structure of tert-butylamine: It is an amine where the nitrogen atom is attached to a tert-butyl group.
Recognize the tert-butyl group: It is a branched alkyl group with the formula (CH3)3C-. It consists of a central carbon atom bonded to three methyl groups.
Identify the amine group: In tert-butylamine, the nitrogen atom is bonded to the central carbon of the tert-butyl group and has two hydrogen atoms attached, forming an NH2 group.
Draw the central carbon atom: Place the central carbon atom and attach three methyl groups (CH3) to it, forming a 'T' shape.
Attach the amine group: Connect the NH2 group to the central carbon atom of the tert-butyl group, completing the structure of tert-butylamine.
