Solution

The correct option is B 1 - Amino - 1 - ethoxypropane
The IUPAC name 1 - Amino - 1 - ethoxypropane is incorrect.
The parent compound is propan-1-amine as the amino group is at first carbon atom.
It also has an ethoxy substituent at the first carbon atom.
Hence, it should be written as 1-ethoxypropan-1-amine.
