Options

A. Ethanamide, methanamine, methanol
B. Propanamide, ethanamine, ethanol
C. N-ethylpropanamide, methaneisonitrile, methanamine
D. Ethanamine, bromoethane, ethanediazonium chloride

Answer

A

Explanation

`underset("Ethanoic acid")(CH_(3)COOH) underset(Delta)overset(NH_(3))rarr underset((A)"Ethanamide")(CH_(3)CONH_(2)) overset(Br_(2)//NaOH)rarr underset((B)"Methanamine")(CH_(3)NH_(2)) overset(NaNO_(2)//dil HCl)rarr underset((C)"Methanol")(CH_(3)OH)`
