Compound (C) was prepared in a three step sequence from ethyl trifluoroacetate. The first step in a sequence involved treating ethyl trifluoroacetate with NH3 to give a compound (A), which on heating with (X) gives (B). (B) on treatment with an orangometallic (Y), followed by hydrolysis produces (C) . Based on above passage attempt the following questions:
