Question

least basic compound is
(A)Aniline (B) benzyiamine (C) Acetamide (D) ammonia

Answer 1

Answer:

in p-nitroaniline, acetanilide and aniline, the lone pair of nitrogen is in conjugation with the aromatic system (benzene ring). So, it is delocalized and is not freely available for donation. So, A,B and C are less basic.

In benzyl amine (PhCH 2 NH2 ), the lone pair of nitrogen is not in conjugation with the benzene ring and it is free for donation to an electrophile. So, D is the most basic compound.

Answer 2

Answer:

the right answered is benzyiamine.
