Chemistry - AMINES Question with Solution | TestHub
Compare the given characteristics of aniline and cyclohexanamine :
(i) Both are primary amine
(ii) Both can be acylated by RCOCl
(iii) Both reacts with
(iv) Both reacts with at
(v) Both reacts with to give a compound which is soluble in KOH
(vi) Both gives coupling reaction with phenol
(vii) Both gives electrophilic substitution reaction
How many of the given characteristics are correct?
Answer:
Solution:
(i) Both are 1° amines
(ii) Both undergo acylation with RCOCl
(iii) Both give Carbylamine test (CHCl₃/KOH)
(iv) Both react with NaNO₂ + HCl (0–5°C) (products are different, but both react)
(v) Both give Hinsberg product soluble in KOH (both are 1° amines)
(vi) Only aniline gives coupling reaction with phenol
(vii) Only aniline undergoes electrophilic aromatic substitution
Correct characteristics = 5
