Arrange the following in increasing order of their basic strength:
C₂H₅NH₂, (C₂H₅)₂NH, (C₂H₅)₃N, C₆H₅NH₂

Question

Arrange the following in increasing order of their basic strength: C 2 H 5 NH 2 , (C 2 H 5 ) 2 NH, (C 2 H 5 ) 3 N, C 6 H 5 NH 2

Philoid · Accepted Answer

By taking into consideration –R effect and steric hindrance of groups we can arrange them in the order C₆H₅NH₂< C₂H₅NH₂<(C2H5)₃N<(C₂H₅)2NH. Because (C₂H₅)₃N has a lot of steric hindrances that reduces the basic strength.

Arrange the following in increasing order of their basic strength:C2H5NH2, (C2H5)2NH, (C2H5)3N, C6H5NH2

Arrange the following in increasing order of their basic strength:
C₂H₅NH₂, (C₂H₅)₂NH, (C₂H₅)₃N, C₆H₅NH₂
