Given below are two statements: Statement I: Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction. Statement II: Aniline cannot be prepared through Gabriel synthesis. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:Statement I: Aniline forms a salt with $AlCl_3$ (Lewis acid); the positive charge on nitrogen is strongly electron-withdrawing and deactivates the ring, so aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation. True. Statement II: Aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with the anion of phthalimide, so aniline cannot be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis. True. So both statements are true.
