Question

Given the following sequence of reactions
`CH_(3)CH_(2)I overset(KCN)rarr A overset(OH^(-))underset("Partial hydrolysis")rarr B overset(Br_(2))underset(NaOH)rarr C`
The major product (C ) is
A. `CH_(3)CH_(2)NH_(2)`
B. `CH_(3)CH_(2)underset(O)underset("||")(C )-NHBr`
C. `CH_(3)CH_(2)COONH_(4)`
D. `CH_(3)CH_(2)-underset(O)underset("||")(C )NBr_(2)`

Answer 1

Correct Answer - A
`CH_(3)CH_(2)I overset(NaCN)rarr CH_(3)CH_(2)CN overset("Partial")underset("hydrolyses")rarr CH_(3)CH_(2)CONH_(2)overset(Br_(2))underset(NaOH)rarr CH_(3)CH_(2)NH_(2)`
