A) n-substituted amide
B) \[{{1}^{o}}\]-amine and formic acid
C) carboxylic acid and ammonia
D) an amide
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
An isocyanide on hydrolysis gives primary amine and formic acid. \[RNC\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O,\,{{H}^{+}}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} primary \\ amine \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{RN{{H}_{2}}}}\,+\underset{formic\text{ }acid}{\mathop{HCOOH}}\,\] Note - Alkyl cyanide on hydrolysis gives acid. \[RCN\xrightarrow{{{H}_{2}}O,{{H}^{+}}}R.\,\,COOH\]
