The order of basic character is:

Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsB
The basicity of the compound depends on the availability of the lone pairs.
In compound IV, Nitrogen is
hybridized.
In compound III, Nitrogen is
hybridized and the lone pairs are not involved in resonance.
In compound I, Nitrogen is
hybridized and the lone pairs are involved in resonance.
In compound II, Nitrogen is
hybridized and the lone pairs are involved in resonance such that, they are contributing to the aromaticity of the ring.
From the above points we can conclude that the basicity order should be IV > III > I > II.
