The monomers used for the synthesis of nylon-2-nylon-6 are :

A

Caprolactum

B

Alanine and amino caproic acid

C

Glycine and amino caproic acid

D

Hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Nylon -2-nylon-6 is an alternating polyamide of glycine (containing two carbon atoms) and e-aminocaproic acid (containing six carbon atoms)
`nH_(2)N-underset("Glycine")(CH_(2))-COOH +underset(darr)(n)H_(2)O -underset("s-aminocaproic acid")((CH_(2))_(5))-COOH`
`underset("Nylon-2-nylon-6") ([-underset(O)underset(||)(C)-CH_(2)-NH-underset(O)underset(||)(C)-CH_(2)-NH-underset(O)underset(||)(C)-(CH_(2))_(5)-NH-])+(n-1)H_(2)O`
