The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The product formed in the given reaction is





In the above reaction, N'N ' bears a positive charge that decreases the electron density due to its strong - I effect and hence is called a deactivating group. The overall electron density on the benzene ring decreases (inspite of three CH3- CH _{3} groups) thus, the electrophilic substitution becomes difficult. The electron density on oo -and pp -position is comparatively lesser than that at mm -position. So, electrophile attacks at mm -position i.e. substitution occur at mm -position.

Concepts Used:

Amines

Amine is a type of compound which is derived from ammonia (NH3). According to Organic chemistry, they are basically classified as the functional groups of the organic nitrogen compounds that contain nitrogen atoms with a lone pair.

Amine - Types

Primary Amines:

It is formed when one hydrogen atom in ammonia is substituted by an alkyl or aromatic group. Amino acids and methyl amine are the best examples that why aromatic amines include aniline.

Secondary Amines:

Amines that have two organic substitutes either alkyl or aryl ones or both and are bound to the nitrogen together with one hydrogen are termed as secondary amines. For Example, Dimethylamine.

Tertiary Amines:

Tertiary Amines are the amines where the nitrogen consists of three organic substitutes. For example, Trimethylamine and EDTA.
