The correct statement regarding the basicity of arylamines is
-
Arylamines are generally more basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen lone pair electrons are not delocalized by interaction with the aromatic ring pi-electron system
-
Arylamines are generally more basic than alkylamines, because of aryl group
-
Arylamines are generally more basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen atom in arylamines is sp-hydridized.
-
Arylamines are generally less basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen lone pair electrons are delocalized by interaction with aromatic ring pi-electron system.
D.
Arylamines are generally less basic than alkylamines because the nitrogen lone pair electrons are delocalized by interaction with aromatic ring pi-electron system.
In the aryl amines, due to the delocalization of lone pair of electrons of N-atom to the benzene ring, it loses its basicity and becomes less basic than alkyl amine.
on the other hand, alkyl amines have +I alkyl effect of the alkyl group which increase electron density on N -atom. Hence the availability of free electron on amine as well as +I effects enhances its basic nature.
