Ethyl chloride on heating with AgCN form...

Ethyl chloride on heating with AgCN forms a compound (X ). The functional isomer of (X) is:

A

`C_2H_5NC`

B

`C_2H_5CN`

C

`H_3C-NH-CH_3`

D

`C_2H_5NH_2`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`C_2H_5Cl+AgCN rarr underset("(X)")underset("Ethyl isocyanide")(C_2H_5-N) equiv C+AgCl`
The functional isomer of ethyl isocyanide is ethyl cyanide `C_2H_5-C equiv N`.
