Amines are classified based on the number of carbon-containing groups attached to the nitrogen atom—primary, secondary, or tertiary. The IUPAC naming convention includes using "amine" as a suffix, and when substituents are present, they are prefixed with their respective names, indicating the positions on the carbon chain.
