Which of the following is more basic than aniline?

1. Triphenylamine
2. p-Nitroaniline
3. Benzylamine
4. Diphenylamine

Correct answer: Benzylamine

Solution

Benzylamine is more basic than aniline because the benzyl group does not delocalize the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen into the aromatic ring, making the lone pair more available for protonation.
