Thus, `Br_(2) "in"H_(2) O`gives : 2, 4 , 6 tribromo aniline as main product i.e.
(ii)On the other hand `CH_(3) COOH`will decrease the REACTIVITY by replacing the H-atom of `-NH_(2)`group with `CH_(3)CO-`group to GIVE .
and as a result only mono-substituted BROMINE at p-position is the major product i.e.,
