An organic compound A with molecular formula `C_2H_7N` produces a compound B which on reaction with `HNO_2` gives ethyl alcohol and when warmed with `CHCl_3` and alcoholic KOH, an offensive smelling compound C is produced. C is

A

`CH_3CH_2OH`

B

`CH_3CH_2N oversetto(=) C`

C

`CH_3CH_2NH_2`

D

`CH_3 C oversetto=N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The formation of ethyl alcohol, from compound B suggests that compound A Is primary amine, i.e. ethyl amine, `undersetA(CH_3CH_2NH_2) +CHCl_3+ underset"(alc.)""3KOH" oversetDeltato undersetC(CH_3CH_2) N oversetto=C + 3KCl + 3H_2O`
