Question

Consider the given reactions:
$\text{i. RCN}\stackrel{\text{Reduction}}{\to }\text{A}$

$\text{ii. RCN}\underset{\left(ii\right)H_{2}O}{\overset{\left(i\right)C{H}_{3}MgBr}{\to }}\text{B}$

$\text{iii. RCN}\underset{\left(\text{Partial}\right)}{\overset{\text{Hydrolysis}}{\to }}\text{C}$

$\text{iv. RCN}\underset{\text{(ii) HONO}}{\overset{\text{(i) Reduction}}{\to }}\text{D}$

Based on the products of the reactions, we have:

• A. A is an amide, B is a methyl ketone
• B. A is a $1^{\circ }$ amine, B is a methyl ketone
• C. C is a carboxylic acid, D is an alcohol
• D. C is an amide, D is an alcohol

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

C is an amide, D is an alcohol
