Question

Which of the following is not an electrophile?
Options
A NH3
Correct Answer
B Br+
C AlCl3
D NO2+
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

NH3 (ammonia) has a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen and is a nucleophile, not an electrophile. Br+, AlCl3 (Lewis acid), and NO2+ are all electron-deficient and act as electrophiles.

Hint

Is NH3 electron-rich or electron-deficient?
