Vedclass · Answer

(D) Aryl halides,such as chlorobenzene,do not undergo nucleophilic substitution reactions with potassium phthalimide under ordinary conditions because the $C-Cl$ bond in chlorobenzene has partial double bond character and the electron-rich benzene ring repels the nucleophile. Therefore,the Gabriel phthalimide synthesis cannot be used for the preparation of aniline. Thus,method $(d)$ is incorrect for the preparation of aniline.
