First product of the reaction between RCHO and NH2NH2 is
- RCH=NNH2
- RCH=NH
- RCH2NH2
- RCON3
Answer
(1) RCH=NNH2
Solution
∵ As per NCERT, aldehydes and ketones react with ammonia derivatives H2N-Z by nucleophilic addition followed by loss of water, forming >C=N-Z.
With hydrazine (Z = NH2) the product is a hydrazone:
RCHO + H2N-NH2 H+ RCH=N-NH2 + H2O
∴ The product is the hydrazone RCH=NNH2.
