In the following sequence of reactions,
`CH_(3)CH_(2)OH overset(KMnO_(4))toX underset(NH_(3))overset(SOCl_(2))to Y overset(Br_(2)//NaOH)to`
the end product (Z) is

Options

A. acetic acid
B. acetone
C. methyl amine
D. ethyl amine

Answer

C

Explanation

`CH_(3)CH_(2)OH overset(KMnO_(4))to underset([X])(CH_(3)COOH)`
`underset(NH_(3))overset(SOCl_(2))tounderset("[Y]")(CH_(3)CONH_(2))`
`overset(Br_(2)//NaOH)toundersetunderset([Z])("Methyl amine")(CH_(3)-NH_(2))`
