Give reasons :
(i)
Ammonolysis of alkyl halides is not a good method to prepare pure primary amines.
(ii)
Aniline does not give Friedel-Crafts reaction.
(iii)
Although $\displaystyle -\mathrm{NH}_{2}$ group is o/p directing in electrophilic substitution reactions, yet aniline on nitration gives good yield of m-nitroaniline.
Marking-scheme solution
(i) Because it gives a mixture of amines which is difficult to separate.
(ii) Aniline is a Lewis base and it reacts with \(\displaystyle \mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\) to form a salt / N of aniline acquires positive charge with \(\displaystyle \mathrm{AlCl}_{3}\) and hence is a deactivating group.
(iii) Because of protonation of aniline / formation of anilinium ion which deactivates the ring.
