Which of the following is most basic ?.

A

`NH_(3)`

B

`C_(6)H_(5)NH_(2)`

C

`Ch_(3)NH_(2)`

D

`C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)NH_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The correct order of basic strength is
`CH_(3)NH_(2) gt C_(6)H_(5)CH_(2)NH_(2) gt C_(6)H_(5)NH_(2)`
In aniline the lone pair on `N` atom is delocalized due to resonance while in methylamine the probability of finding the lone pair on N atom is increased due to the electron releasing nature of `CH_(3)` group .
