Q. The correct increasing order of basic strengthamong p-nitroaniiine (I) ; p-bromoaniline (II), p-toluidine (III) is

Amines

Solution:

$-NO_{2}$ is electron withdrawing, $-CH_{3}$ is electron releasing (+I effect), -Br group has -I effect but +R effect
Therefore, correct order of basic strength
$p$-Nitroaniline $< \,p$-Bromoaniline $<\, p$ -Toluidine or $I < \, II<\, III$
