Solution

The correct option is B LiAlH4
Here we need to convert an amide to a secondary amine.

NaBH4 is used to convert ketones and aldehydes to alcohols

Hydrogenation can reduce amides to amines, but only at extreme conditions of pressure and temperature

Clemmensen reduction reduces ketones in acidic conditions

LiAlH4 is suitable for the reduction of amide to amine.
