The correct answer is:
More be the ability of -atom of group to donate lone pair of electrons to (dil.), more be the reactivity of amine.
In (B) two alkyl groups are attached to the (having electron releasing nature) which increases the electron donating ability of -atom of . In aqueous medium, secondary amine is most basic. Hence, it is most reactive. In (D), due to resonance, lone pair of electrons get delocalised and its basic strength is very less.
