Identify the incorrect statements. A. Benzylamine is a stronger base than aniline. B. p-Methoxyaniline can be synthesized by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis. C. Phenylacetamide (PhCH₂CONH₂) with Br₂, NaOH gives a primary aromatic amine. D. p-Nitroaniline, on (i) NaNO₂/HCl, 0°C (ii) Δ, gives a product that will dissolve in NaOH.

Answer: (C)

Solution

A is true (benzylamine's lone pair isn't delocalised into the ring, unlike aniline's). B is false: Gabriel synthesis doesn't work for aromatic amines (aryl halides don't undergo the required SN2). C is
