Question

Which of the following compound cannot be produced if 1-propanamine is treated with $NaN{O}_2$ and $HCl$?

• A. propane-1-ol
• B. propane-2-ol
• C. 2-chloropropane
• D. 2-propanamine

Answer 1

The correct option is D 2-propanamine

When 1-propanamine is treated with $NaN{O}_2$ and $HCl$, 2-propanamine cannot be produced. This is because there is no mechanism by which the amino group can be shifted from first carbon atom to second carbon atom.
