Among the following the strongest base is

A

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

B

`p-NO_(2)C_(6)H_(4)NH_(2)`

C

`m- NO_(2)- C_(6)H_(4)NH_(2)`

D

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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`-NO_(2)` is electron withdrawing group, which will decrease basicity. In benzyl amine the lone pair of electrons are not delocalized as in other compound i.e. they are available for donation. Hence it is the strongest base.
