Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 58P
In the presence of excess base and excess halogen, a methyl ketone is converted to a carboxylate ion. The reaction is known as the haloform reaction because one of the products is haloform (chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform). Before spectroscopy became a routine analytical tool, the haloform reaction served as a test for methyl

How is nucleophilicity (nucleophile strength) related to basicity?
Amines are weak bases. Table 10.2 in the course textbook provides a list of pKb values for
several amines. The pK values for three amines and their structures are shown below. Explain
why increased substitution on nitrogen results in an increase of the pKb value.
