The basicity of aniline is weaker in comparison to that of methyl amine due to
- A hyperconjugative effect of Me-group in \(\mathrm{MeNH}_{2}\)
- B resonance effect of phenyl group in aniline
- C lower molecular weight of methyl amine as compared to that of aniline
- D resonance effect of \(-\mathrm{NH}_{2}\) group in \(\mathrm{MeNH}_{2}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) resonance effect of phenyl group in aniline
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The lone pair of electrons, present in N-atom in aniline involve in ring resonance. So it is less basic than methyl amine.
