MCQ
Note: In the following question a statement of assertion followed by a statement of reason is given. Choose the correct answer out of the following choices.
Assertion: Acylation of amines gives a monosubstituted product whereas alkylation of amines gives polysubstituted product.
Reason: Acyl group sterically hinders the approach of further acyl groups.
  • A
    Both assertion and reason are wrong.
  • B
    Both assertion and reason are correct statements but reason is not correct explanation of assertion.
  • Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
  • D
    Both assertion and reason are correct statements and reason is correct explanation of assertion.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Assertion is correct statement but reason is wrong statement.
Amines on acetylation give monosubstituted product, while on alkylation gives polysubstitution product as well.
