Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
The NH2 group in aniline is a strong electron-donating group, making it ortho and para directing in electrophilic aromatic substitution. Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts reactions due to the formation of a complex with AlCl3, deactivating the benzene ring.
