Aniline can be formed from the ammonolysis of chlorobenzene.(a) True(b) FalseThe question was posed to me in examination.The above asked question is from Preparation of Amines in division Amines of Chemistry – Class 12

Answer»

The correct option is (b) False

To explain I WOULD say: AMMONOLYSIS is not suitable for the production of ARYL amines, because aryl halides are stable and relatively less REACTIVE TOWARD nucleophilic substitution than alkyl halides. Since chlorobenzene is an aryl halide, it does not undergo ammonolysis to form aniline.
