The correct Answer is:
To determine in which reaction alcohol is not formed as a product, we will analyze each of the four given reactions step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the first reaction **Reaction:** CH3CH2NH2 + NaNO2 + HCl - **Process:** - CH3CH2NH2 (ethylamine) reacts with sodium nitrite (NaNO2) in the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form nitrous acid (HONO). - The reaction leads to the formation of ethanol (CH3CH2OH) and nitrogen gas (N2) along with water (H2O). - **Conclusion:** Alcohol (ethanol) is formed in this reaction. ### Step 2: Analyze the second reaction **Reaction:** CH3CHO + CH3MgBr + H2O - **Process:** - CH3CHO (acetaldehyde) reacts with methylmagnesium bromide (CH3MgBr) in dry ether, leading to the formation of a Grignard addition product. - When water (H2O) is added, the Grignard reagent reacts to form a secondary alcohol (CH3CH(OH)CH3). - **Conclusion:** Alcohol (a secondary alcohol) is formed in this reaction. ### Step 3: Analyze the third reaction **Reaction:** CH3CONH2 + LiAlH4 - **Process:** - CH3CONH2 (acetamide) is treated with lithium aluminium hydride (LiAlH4), a strong reducing agent. - This reaction reduces the amide to a primary amine (CH3NH2) without forming any alcohol. - **Conclusion:** No alcohol is formed in this reaction. ### Step 4: Analyze the fourth reaction **Reaction:** CH3CH2Cl + KOH (aqueous) - **Process:** - CH3CH2Cl (ethyl chloride) reacts with aqueous KOH, leading to the formation of ethanol (CH3CH2OH) and potassium chloride (KCl). - **Conclusion:** Alcohol (ethanol) is formed in this reaction. ### Final Answer Based on the analysis of all four reactions, the reaction in which alcohol is not formed is: **Option 3: CH3CONH2 + LiAlH4**
