A) \[C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-N{{H}_{2}}\]
B) \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-N{{H}_{2}}\]
C) \[C{{H}_{3}}-N{{O}_{2}}\]
D) \[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-N{{O}_{2}}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
\[\underset{acetamide}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} || \\ O \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,-N{{H}_{2}}}}\,+B{{r}_{2}}+KOH\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\underset{methyl\text{ }amine}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}N{{H}_{2}}}}\,\] This is Hofmann's degradation reaction.
