NEET · Chemistry · STD 12 - 9. Amines
Nitration of aniline in strong acidic medium also gives m-nitroaniline because
- A In spite of substituents nitro group always goes to only \(m-\)position
- B In electrophilic substitution reactions amino group is meta directive.
- C In absence of substituents nitro group always goes to m-position
- D In acidic (strong) medium aniline is present as anilinium ion
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) In acidic (strong) medium aniline is present as anilinium ion
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In acidic medium aniline is protonated to form anilinium ion which is metadirecting.
