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:
- ABoth statement I and Statement II are true
- BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
- CStatement I is correct but Statement II is false
- DStatement I is incorrect but Statement II is true

Correct answer: A
$\bullet$ Aniline does not undergo Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction due to salt formation with aluminium chloride, the Lewis acid, which is used as a catalyst.
$\bullet$ Aniline (aromatic primary amine) cannot be prepared by Gabriel phthalimide synthesis because aryl halides do not undergo nucleophilic substitution with anion formed by phthalimide.
