Arrange the following amines in the decreasing order of basicity.
Arrange the following amines in the decreasing order of basicity.
Solution
Values are a measure of basicity. Higher the value, greater will be basicity.
(I) Basic character
has more % s-character than so it is less basic as compare to Hence
(II) In the (ii) structure lone pair present on the N atom is involved in aromaticity so, it is difficult to donate. Hence, least basic
Thus, the correct order will be:
