Solution
The correct option is A When carboxylic acid reacts with SOCl2, it forms carbonyl chloride. When it reacts with NH3, it forms amide. When an amide is treated with bromine in an aqueous or ethanolic solution of sodium hydroxide, degradation of amide takes place and is popularly known as Hoffmann bromanmide degradation reaction.
