Choose the incorrect statement.

  1. A Aniline cannot be prepared by Phthalimide reaction
  2. B Propan–2–amine can be obtained by reacting acetoxime with Na / C\(_2\)H\(_5\)OH
  3. C The decreasing order of basic strength of amines in aqueous solution is Ethanamine > N,N–Dimethylaniline > Benzenamine
  4. D Fluorobenzene cannot be prepared from Benzenediazonium chloride by Sandmeyer's reaction because Fluorination of the Diazonium salt is highly endothermic in nature

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Fluorobenzene cannot be prepared from Benzenediazonium chloride by Sandmeyer's reaction because Fluorination of the Diazonium salt is highly endothermic in nature

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is used for the preparation of primary aliphatic amines. Aniline cannot be prepared by this method because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion formed by phthalimide. Statement A is correct. Acetoxime is…
