The basic character of ethyl amine,diethyl amine and triethyl amine in chlorobenzene is

A

`C_2H_5NH_2lt(C_2H_5)_2NHlt(C_2H_5)_3N`

B

`C_2H_5NH_2lt(C_2H_5)_3Nlt(C_2H_5)_2N`

C

`(C_2H_5)Nlt(C_2H_6)_2NHltC_2H_5NH_2`

D

`(C_2H_5)_3NltC_2H_5NH_2lt(C_2H_5)_2NH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

In presence of chlorobanzene, hydrogen bonding is not possible between the protonated amine and the solvent and thus the stabilization factor (salvation effect) is absent. Hence basicity is explained on the basis of the number of electron releasing groups in an amine.
