Aniline reacts with bromine in CS(2) [ca...

Aniline reacts with bromine in `CS_(2)` [carbon disulphide] at room temperature to yield .

A

2,4,6-tribromoaniline

B

o-bromoaniline

C

p-bromoaniline

D

A mixture of (2) and (3)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Unlike pheno1 there is no change of product on changing the nature of solvent because whether we use bromine water or bromine in `CS_(2)` the substrate is aniline which is more reactive than pheno1 towards electrophilic aromatic substitution In aqueous solution of aniline the following equilibrium exists : `C_(6)H_(5)NH_(2)+H_(2)overset(..)O:rarrC_(6)H_(5)overset(+)(NH_(3)) + H_(3)O^(+)`
The electrophile `Br^(+)` prefers the more reactive `C_(6)H_(6)NH_(2)`
rather than `C_(6)H_(5)NH_(3)`
