The increasing order of basicity of the following compounds is :
The increasing order of basicity of the following compounds is :
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
The basic nature of amines can be explained on the basis hybridisation. The basic nature order is . If the lone pair on nitrogen involved in resonance, then it is less basic than others. In the molecules A, B and D, the nitrogen is hybridised. In the pyrrole molecule the lone pair on nitrogen involving in conjugation to get aromaticity. Hence, C is most basic and B is least basic.
