Vedclass · Accepted Answer

Aryl amines react with nitrous acid to produce phenols.

Vedclass · Answer

(C) $(i)$ The presence of an electron-withdrawing substituent decreases basicity,while the presence of an electron-releasing substituent like $-CH_{3}, -C_{2}H_{5},$ etc.,increases basicity.$(ii)$ $HNO_{2}$ converts the $-NH_{2}$ group of aliphatic amines into $-OH$ (alcohols),whereas it converts aromatic amines into diazonium salts at low temperatures $(0-5\,^{\circ}C)$.$(iii)$ Alkyl amines are more basic than ammonia due to the electron-releasing effect of the alkyl group,while aryl amines are less basic than ammonia due to the electron-withdrawing nature of the phenyl ring.$(iv)$ The reaction for alkyl amines: $R-NH_{2} \xrightarrow{HNO_{2}} R-OH + N_{2} + H_{2}O$.$(v)$ The reaction for aryl amines: $C_{6}H_{5}NH_{2} \xrightarrow{NaNO_{2} + HCl, 273-278\,K} C_{6}H_{5}N_{2}^{+}Cl^{-}$.Therefore,the statement that aryl amines react with nitrous acid to produce phenols is false,as they form diazonium salts under these conditions.
