    How will you convert (i) ethanoic acid into methanamine? (ii) hexanenitrile into 1-aminopentane? (iii) methanol to ethanoic acid? (iv) ethanamine into methanamine? (v) ethanoic acid into propanoic acid? (vi) methanamine into ethanamine? (vii) nitrornetliane into dimethylamine? (viii) propanoic acid into ethanoic acid?   The given conversion involve the following steps: (i) Chlorination of carboxyl group by  formation of amide by reacting with  Hofmann bromamide reaction i.e., reaction with . (ii) Partial hydrolysis, Hofmann bromamide reaction. (iii) Chlorination (reaction with or ) substituting  by CN (using alc. KCN, hydrolysis. (iv) Reaction with , oxidation, amide formation (by reaction with),then amine formation (i.e., Hofmann brornamide reaction). (v) Reduction (by ), iodination cyanide formation, hydrolysis. (vi) Alcohol formation i.e., reaction with  iodination. Cyanide formation reduction. (vii) Reduction into by carbylamine reaction, reduction. (viii) Amide formation (reaction with ), Hofmann?sbromamide reaction, reaction with nitrous acid, oxidation.  

    Answer:

    (i)Ethanoic acid into methanamine (ii) Hexane nitrile to 1-aminopentane (iii) Methanol to ethanoic acid (iv) Ethanamine to methanamine (v) Ethanoic acid into propanoic acid (vi) Methanamine to ethanamine (vii)Nitromethane into dimethyl amine (viii) Propanoic acid into ethanoic acid
