    The correct order of basicity?s of the following compounds is \[\underset{4}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{O}{\mathop{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}\,}}\,-N{{H}_{2}}}}\,\]                        [IIT-JEE (Screening) 2001]

    A)                 \[2>1>3>4\]      

    B)                 \[1>3>2>4\]

    C)                 \[3>1>2>4\]      

    D)                 \[1>2>3>4\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

               The relative basic charecter of \[{{1}^{o}},{{2}^{o}}\] and \[{{3}^{o}}\] amines also depends upon the nature of the alkyl group.                        \[R\]                   Relative basic strength                    \[-C{{H}_{3}}\]            \[{{R}_{2}}NH>R-N{{H}_{2}}>{{R}_{3}}N>N{{H}_{3}}\]                    \[-{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}\]          \[{{R}_{2}}NH>R-N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{R}_{3}}N\]                    \[-CHM{{e}_{2}}\]        \[R-N{{H}_{2}}>N{{H}_{3}}>{{R}_{2}}NH>{{R}_{3}}N\] \[-CM{{e}_{3}}\]           \[N{{H}_{3}}>R-N{{H}_{2}}>{{R}_{2}}NH>{{R}_{3}}N\]
