Starting from propanoic acid, the following reaction were carried acid `overset(SOCl_2)toXoverset(NH_3)toYoverset(Br_2+KOH)toZ` What is the compound?

A

`CH_(3)- CH_(2)- Br`

B

`CH_(3)- CH_(2)- NH_(2)`

C

D

`CH_(3)- CH_(2)- CH_(2)- NH_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`underset(("Propanoic acid"))(CH_(3)CH_(2)COOH) overset(SOCl_(2))rarr CH_(3)CH_(2)COCl+ SO_(2) + HCl`
`CH_(3)CH_(2)COCl + NH_(3) rarr CH_(3)CH_(2)CONH_(2) + HCl`
`CH_(3)CH_(2) CONH_(2) + Br_(2)//NaOH rarr underset("Ethyl amine")(CH_(3)CH_(2)NH_(2)) + CO_(2)`
