Answer:
Amines have lower boiling points than alcohols because nitrogen is less electronegative than oxygen. As a result the N─H bond is less polar than the O─H bond, and the N─H---N hydrogen bond in amines is weaker than the O─H---O hydrogen bond in alcohols.

Amines generally have lower boiling points than alcohols of comparable molar mass because amines have weaker hydrogen bonds than alcohols. Consider the compounds methanol and methylamine. Methanol has strong hydrogen bonds. The strong intermolecular forces give methanol a high boiling point.
