If $$ R = Me_3C- (t -butyl) $$the correct order of basic character of the above amines in aqueous medium is :

A$$ NH_3 > 1^o > 2^o > 3^o $$
Correct Answer
B$$ 3^o > 2^o > 1^o > NH_3 $$
C$$ 1^o > 2^o >NH_3 > 3^o $$
D$$ 1^o > NH_3 > 2^o > 3^o $$

Solution

In gaseous or nonpolar solvent, the basic order is $$ 3^o > 2^o >1^o> NH_3 $$
In aqueous medium, order reverses! Hence option (A) is correct.
