Solution

The correct option is C Carbylaminomethane
Reduction with $Z n - H g / H C l$ is Clemmensen reduction
which converts $R - C \equiv N \to R C H_{2} N H_{2}$ and
$R - \oplus N \equiv ⊖ C \to R N H C H_{3}$

Carbylamino methane is $(M e - \oplus N \equiv ⊖ C)$

$∴ M e - \oplus N \equiv ⊖ C Z n - H g / H C l - ------- \to M e - N H - C H_{3} N - M e t h y l m e t h a n a m i n e$

Option D is correct.
