The correct Answer is:
To solve the given question step by step, we will analyze the reactions involved and identify the products formed at each stage. ### Step 1: Identify the Starting Material The starting material (A) is **PhCONH2**, which is an amide (specifically, benzamide). ### Step 2: Reaction with KOBr The first reaction involves treating benzamide (PhCONH2) with **KOBr** (potassium bromate). This reaction is known as the **Hofmann degradation** or **Hofmann rearrangement**. In this reaction, the amide undergoes a rearrangement to form an isocyanate intermediate. The general reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{PhCONH}_2 + \text{KOBr} \rightarrow \text{PhC(=O)N} \text{(isocyanate)} \] ### Step 3: Formation of Product B After the rearrangement, the isocyanate can undergo hydrolysis or further reactions. In this case, the isocyanate can react with water or alcohols to form an **urea derivative**. Thus, the product (B) after the reaction with KOBr will be: \[ \text{PhC(=O)N} \text{(isocyanate)} \rightarrow \text{PhC(=O)NH} \text{(urea)} \] ### Step 4: Reaction with MeOH Now, product (B) reacts with **MeOH** (methanol). This reaction involves the nucleophilic attack of methanol on the carbonyl carbon of the urea derivative. The reaction can be represented as: \[ \text{PhC(=O)NH} + \text{MeOH} \rightarrow \text{PhC(=O)OCH_3} + \text{NH}_2 \] ### Step 5: Formation of Product C The final product (C) formed from the reaction of product (B) with MeOH will be: \[ \text{PhC(=O)OCH_3} \] This compound is a **methyl ester** of the corresponding carboxylic acid derived from the urea. ### Conclusion Thus, the final product (C) is: \[ \text{PhC(=O)OCH_3} \] ### Final Answer The correct option for product (C) is: **PhC(=O)OCH3** (which can also be written as Ph-CO-O-CH3). ---
