The conversion of primary aromatic amines into diazonium salts is known as ___________.
Assertion (A): Both aromatic and aliphatic primary amines produce stable diazonium salts on diazotization
Reason (R): Aromatic diazonium salt exhibit resonance
Account for the following
(i) pKb of aniline is more than that of methyl amine.
(ii) Ethylamine is soluble in water whereas aniline is not
(iii) Methyl amine in water reacts with ferric chloride to precipitate hydrated ferric oxide
(iv) Although amino group is o- and p- directing in aromatic electrophilic substitution, aniline on nitration gives a substantial amount of m-nitroaniline
(v) Aniline does not undergo Friedel Crafts reaction
(vi) Diazonium salts of aromatic amines are more stable than those of aliphatic amines
(vii) Gabriel phthalimide synthesis is preferred for synthesising primary amines
