Options:
A) $ CH_3NH_2 $
B) $ R{O^{-}} $
C) $ AlCl_3 $
D) $ CH_3MgBr $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
$ CH_3\overset{\cdot \ \cdot }{\mathop{N}},H_2,\ R-\underset{\cdot \ \cdot }{\overset{\cdot \ \cdot \ }{\mathop{O}}}-,\ CH_3-Mg-\underset{\cdot \ \cdot }{\overset{\cdot \ \cdot }{\mathop{B}}},r: $ are nucleophiles due to presence of lone pairs.
