m-nitroaniline

Vedclass · Answer

(B) The reaction of $m$-dinitrobenzene with ammonium hydrosulfide $(NH_4HS)$ is a selective reduction reaction. $NH_4HS$ acts as a selective reducing agent that reduces only one of the two nitro $(-NO_2)$ groups to an amino $(-NH_2)$ group in dinitro compounds. Therefore,the reaction of $m$-dinitrobenzene with $NH_4HS$ yields $m$-nitroaniline as the major product ($70\%$ to $80\%$ yield). The correct option is $(B)$.

The major product ($70\%$ to $80\%$) of the reaction between $m$-dinitrobenzene with $NH_4HS$ is
