The amine which will not undergo benzoylation in alkaline medium is |
Methanamine N-Ethylethanamine Benzenamine N,N-Dimethylaniline |
N,N-Dimethylaniline |
The correct answer is Option (4) → N,N-Dimethylaniline Benzoylation (reaction with benzoyl chloride) occurs at the –NH₂ group of amines.
N,N-Dimethylaniline is a tertiary amine, so it will not undergo benzoylation. |
