What is the difference between Sandmeyer reaction and Gatterman reaction? Explain with examples.

Sandmeyer Reaction

The Cl , Br and CN nucleophiles can easily be introduced in the benzene ring of benzene diazonium salt in the presence of Cu(I) ion. This reaction is called Sandmeyer reaction.

Gatterman Reaction

Chlorine or bromine can be introduced in the benzene ring by treating the benzene diazonium salt solution with corresponding halogen acid in the presence of copper powder. This is referred as Gatterman reaction.

 

The yield in Sandmeyer reaction is found to be better than Gattermann reaction. Gattermann reaction is a variation of Sandmeyer reaction which the CuCl is replaced by Cu powder. This replacement leads to formation of aryl halide more easily and under mild conditions than Sandmeyer reaction although the yield is reduced.

sir/madam, this doubt will be lenghty. request peace reading. the doubt is w.r.t chapter Amines; to be specific it is w.r.t basicity of amines. in the topic of the comparision of the basic character of alkylamines with ammonia,  the order of basicity of amines is tertiary> secondary> primary in gaseous phase, only due to the +I effect. in gasous phase only +I effect is shown? also in the aqueous phase, the disturbancy in the order of basicity is due to the sum of effects of +I effect, solvation effect and steric hindrance? the order of the stability of the following in aqueous phase: +I effect: tertiary> secondary> primary solvation: primary > secondary > tertiary steric hindrance: primary > secondary > tertiary so does it means that +I is effected in both gaseous and aqueous phase but solvation and steric hindrance are effected only in aqueous phase? also sir there is an order of basicity when R= CH3 group and when R= C2H5 group: R= CH3: secondary> primary> tertiary R= C2H5: secondary> tertiary> primary so sir can we generalise the order that: when R=CH3 group, the order of basicity: secondary> primary> tertiary and when R> CH3 group, the order of basicity: secondary> tertiary> primary

sir/ madam, is it true that if no of bonds in an atom increases then the atom acquires a positive charge on it and when it loses one bond it acquires a negative charge on it ? why does it happen so?
