The correct option is C The action of AgCN on alkyl halide
An alkyl isocyanide is prepared by the action of AgCN on alkyl halide
CH3CH2−Br+AgCN→CH3CH2CN+CH3CH2N−C++NaBr Ethyl cyanide Ethyl isocyanide Minor Major
In AgCN, the bond between Ag and C is predominantly covalent in nature, thus, C site is not available in case of AgCN. Hence, the lone pair of N attacks the ethyl bromide, and isocyanide is formed as the major product.
Alcohol with ammonia give primary amine and amide on heating with P2O5 gives cyanide.
Hence, option (c) is correct.
