Given below are two statements: Statement I : Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. Statement II : Aniline cannot be prepared through Gabriel synthesis. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options

  1. ABoth Statement I and Statement II are false
  2. BStatement I is correct but Statement II is false
  3. CStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is true
  4. DBoth statement I and Statement II are true

Correct answer

D. Both statement I and Statement II are true

Step-by-step solution

- Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction due to salt formation with aluminium chloride, the Lewis acid, which is used as a catalyst. - Aniline (aromatic primary amine) cannot be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with anion formed by phthalimide.
