A protonated amine has a p
K
a
∼
11. Therefore, the neutral amine will be protonated by the acid that is
produced in the reaction, and a protonated amine is not a nucleophile. Excess amine is used to have some
unprotonated amine available to react as a nucleophile.
A protonated alcohol has a p
K
a
∼
-
2. Therefore, the alcohol will not be protonated by the acid that is
produced in the reaction.
