The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given reactions step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the reactants We start with trimethylamine, denoted as Me₃N, which has the structure: \[ \text{N(CH}_3\text{)}_3 \] This means it has three methyl groups attached to a nitrogen atom. ### Step 2: Reaction with BrCN When trimethylamine reacts with bromine cyanide (BrCN), one of the methyl groups is replaced by a cyanide group (CN). The reaction can be represented as follows: \[ \text{Me}_3\text{N} + \text{BrCN} \rightarrow \text{A} + \text{CH}_3\text{Br} \] Here, product A is formed, which is dimethylsynamide (Me₂N-CN). The structure of product A can be represented as: \[ \text{Me}_2\text{N-CN} \] ### Step 3: Hydrolysis of product A The next step involves the hydrolysis of product A (dimethylsynamide) in the presence of water (H₂O) and heat: \[ \text{A} + \text{H}_2\text{O} \xrightarrow{\Delta} \text{B} \] During hydrolysis, the cyanide group (CN) is converted into a carboxylic acid group (COOH). The hydrolysis of a cyanide typically yields a carboxylic acid. ### Step 4: Determine product B After hydrolysis, the product B will be dimethylcarbamic acid, which can be represented as: \[ \text{B} = \text{Me}_2\text{N-COOH} \] This means that product B is: \[ \text{Me}_2\text{NCOOH} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the final product B is dimethylcarbamic acid (Me₂NCOOH). ### Final Answer B is Me₂NCOOH. ---
