Question
Giving a reason, arrange the following amines in order of decreasing basicity.
Solution
The correct order is:
The -I effect of F decreases the electron density of N atom and decreasing the basicity of amines. But the -I effect of F decrease as it moves always from the amine group and therefore increases the basicity.
