InterviewSolution

1.	Which of the following does not undergo the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction?A. AnilineB. NitrobenzeneC. AnisoleD. Both (1) and (2)
Answer» Correct Answer - 4 Aniline forms a complex with `AIX_(3)` through lone pair on nitrogen. `C_(6)H_(5)overset(delta)(N)H_(2)..overset(delta-)(Al)X_(3)` Nitro group is a strong deactivator, Thus the `e^(-)` density in nitrobenzne is to less to be attacked by an electrophile.
