Which among following statements is NOT true about Gabriel phthalimide synthesis?

Options

  1. AIn this method formation of N -alkyl phthalimide is involved.
  2. BIn this method sodiumphthalate is also obtained.
  3. CThis method is useful for preparation of aromatic amines.
  4. DIn this method potassium salt of phthalimide is formed as an intermediate product.

Correct answer

C. This method is useful for preparation of aromatic amines.

Step-by-step solution

Aromatic amines cannot be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion formed by phthalimide.
