Solution & Explanation
### Related Formula
textMoles = fractextMasstextMolar Mass$$\text{Moles} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$$textMass of HCl consumed = n_textamine cdot M_textHCl$$\text{Mass of HCl consumed} = n_{\text{amine}} \cdot M_{\text{HCl}}$$
### Core Logic
Step 1: Identify the most basic amine
Benzylamine (mathrmC_6mathrmH_5mathrmCH_2mathrmNH_2$\mathrm{C}_6\mathrm{H}_5\mathrm{CH}_2\mathrm{NH}_2$) is the most basic compound here because its nitrogen lone pair is localized and not involved in aromatic resonance. This stands in contrast to aniline or amides, which delocalize their lone pairs into the ring or carbonyl group .
Step 2: Neutralization Stoichiometry
mathrmC_6H_5CH_2NH_2 + mathrmHCl
ightarrow mathrmC_6H_5CH_2NH_3^+ Cl^-$$\mathrm{C_6H_5CH_2NH_2} + \mathrm{HCl}
ightarrow \mathrm{C_6H_5CH_2NH_3^+ Cl^-}$$
Molar Mass of Benzylamine (mathrmC_7mathrmH_9mathrmN$\mathrm{C}_7\mathrm{H}_9\mathrm{N}$):
M = (7 cdot 12) + (9 cdot 1) + 14 = 84 + 9 + 14 = 107 \, mathrmg/mol$$M = (7 \cdot 12) + (9 \cdot 1) + 14 = 84 + 9 + 14 = 107 \, \mathrm{g/mol}$$
Moles of Benzylamine in 1.0text g$1.0\text{ g}$ :
n = frac1.0107 simeq 0.009346 \, mathrmmol$$n = \frac{1.0}{107} \simeq 0.009346 \, \mathrm{mol}$$
Since 1 mole of benzylamine reacts with 1 mole of mathrmHCl$\mathrm{HCl}$ :
textMoles of HCl consumed = 0.009346 \, mathrmmol$$\text{Moles of HCl consumed} = 0.009346 \, \mathrm{mol}$$textMass of HCl = 0.009346 cdot 36.5 = 0.3411 \, mathrmg = 341.1 \, mathrmmg
ightarrow 341$$\text{Mass of HCl} = 0.009346 \cdot 36.5 = 0.3411 \, \mathrm{g} = 341.1 \, \mathrm{mg}
ightarrow 341$$
### Pattern Recognition
Aliphatic localized clusters (like the -mathrmCH_2mathrmNH_2$-\mathrm{CH}_2\mathrm{NH}_2$ segment in benzylamine) always show higher basicity than aromatic ring-conjugated arrays.

Q38jee_main_2025_03_april_morningReactions of Diazonium Salts
In the following reactions, which one is NOT correct?
A. Reaction Scheme (1)
B. Reaction Scheme (2)
C. Reaction Scheme (3)
D. Reaction Scheme (4)
Solution
### Core Logic
When benzene diazonium chloride is treated with ethanol (textCH_3textCH_2textOH$\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH}$), it undergoes a reduction reaction (deamination). Ethanol acts as a reducing agent and gets oxidized to ethanal (textCH_3textCHO$\text{CH}_3\text{CHO}$), while the diazonium group is replaced by hydrogen to yield pure **benzene**, not phenetole (ethoxybenzene).

### Step 1: Review of Alternative Choices
Reactions (2), (3), and (4) show standard correct transformations: hypophosphorous acid reduction to benzene, potassium iodide substitution to iodobenzene, and cuprous cyanide substitution to benzonitrile.
### Pattern Recognition
Shortcut: Remember that textH_3textPO_2$\text{H}_3\text{PO}_2$ and textCH_3textCH_2textOH$\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH}$ are standard classic reducing agents that reduce textArN_2^+textCl^-$\text{ArN}_2^+\text{Cl}^-$ directly down to textArH$\text{ArH}$ (benzene). They do not undergo nucleophilic ether substitution paths.

D.textProduct 4$\text{Product 4}$
Solution
### Core Logic
Let's track the chemical transformations sequentially:
1. **Step 1 (Sn + HCl$Sn + HCl$):** Nitrobenzene is cleanly reduced to yield Aniline (C_6H_5NH_2$C_6H_5NH_2$).
2. **Step 2 (Ac_2O + textPyridine$Ac_2O + \text{Pyridine}$):** Protecting step. Aniline undergoes acetylation to form Acetanilide (C_6H_5NHCOCH_3$C_6H_5NHCOCH_3$). This tempers the highly activating -NH_2$-NH_2$ group to prevent poly-bromination.
3. **Step 3 (Br_2 + AcOH$Br_2 + AcOH$):** The -NHCOCH_3$-NHCOCH_3$ amide group safely directs electrophilic bromination to the less-hindered **para** position, yielding p-bromoacetanilide.
4. **Step 4 (NaOH_(aq)$NaOH_{(aq)}$):** Basic hydrolysis removes the protecting acetyl group, restoring the free amine function to yield the final product: **p-bromoaniline**.
### Pattern Recognition
Acetylation of aniline followed by halogenation and subsequent hydrolysis is the standard synthetic pathway to produce mono-substituted para-haloanilines.

### Core Logic
1. Aliphatic amines vs Aromatic amines: In aromatic amines (A, B, C), the lone pair on nitrogen is delocalized into the benzene ring via resonance, decreasing basicity compared to aliphatic amines (D, E) where electron pairs are localized.
2. Among aliphatic amines (aqueous standard configurations implicit): Secondary amine (textCH_3)_2textNH$(\text{CH}_3)_2\text{NH}$ is a stronger base than primary textCH_3textNH_2$\text{CH}_3\text{NH}_2$ due to combined inductive effect (+textI$+\text{I}$) and solvation fields. Hence, textE > textD$\text{E} > \text{D}$.
3. Among substituted aromatic amines:
- **(B) p-Methoxyaniline**: -textOCH_3$-\text{OCH}_3$ exerts a strong electron-donating resonance effect (+textM$+\text{M}$), maximizing ring density and electronic availability on N.
- **(A) Aniline**: Baseline reference value with no extra substitutions.
- **(C) p-Nitroaniline**: -textNO_2$-\text{NO}_2$ acts as an intensive electron-withdrawing field (-textM, -textI$-\text{M}, -\text{I}$), pulling electron clouds heavily and quenching basicity.
### Step 1: Consolidating Rankings
Combining both structural domains cleanly provides:
textE > textD > textB > textA > textC $$\text{E} > \text{D} > \text{B} > \text{A} > \text{C} $$
### Pattern Recognition
Basicity hierarchy shortcut: Aliphatic secondary >$>$ Aliphatic primary >$>$ Aromatic with EDG (+textM$+\text{M}$) >$>$ Unsubstituted aniline >$>$ Aromatic with EWG (-textM$-\text{M}$). This immediately gives textE > textD > textB > textA > textC$\text{E} > \text{D} > \text{B} > \text{A} > \text{C}$ without deep arithmetic.

Q28jee_main_2025_24_jan_eveningChemical Reactions of Aniline
For reaction
The image shows a multi-step organic conversion starting with sulfanilic acid intermediate structure mapping to a selectively brominated major product.
The correct order of set of reagents for the above conversion is :
### Core Logic
To direct selective monobromination ortho to the amino functionality while utilizing the masking capability of the sulfonic acid group:
1. Treating Aniline with conc. mathrmH2SO_4$\mathrm{H}{2}SO_{4}$ at high temperature (453-473text K$453-473\text{ K}$) yields Sulfanilic acid due to para sulfonating preference.
2. Acetylation with mathrmAc_2O$\mathrm{Ac}_{2}O$ protects the amine as an acetanilide functionality to moderate activation power and prevent over-bromination.
3. Electrophilic substitution using mathrmBr_2$\mathrm{Br}_{2}$ selectively places bromine at the position ortho to the protected acetamido group (the only available activated site since para is occupied).
4. Acidic/thermal desulfonation via mathrmH_2O(Delta)$\mathrm{H}_{2}O(\Delta)$ cleaves the para-sulfonic acid group.
5. Alkaline hydrolysis with mathrmNaOH$\mathrm{NaOH}$ removes the acetyl protecting group to regenerate the pristine primary amine structure yielding ortho-bromoaniline.
