A student has been given a compound 'x' of molecular formula C6H7N. 'x' is sparingly soluble in water. However, on addition of dilute mineral acid, 'x' becomes soluble in water. 'x' when treated with CHCl3 and KOH(alc), 'y' is produced. 'y' has a specific unpleasant smell. On treatment with benzenesulphonyl chloride, 'x' gives a compound 'z' which is soluble in alkali. The number of different "H" atoms present in 'z' is :

  1. 8
  2. 4
  3. 5
  4. 7

Answer

(4) 7

Solution

C6H7N, basic (dissolves in dilute acid), gives carbylamine reaction (offensive smelling isocyanide 'y' = C6H5NC) 'x' is aniline, C6H5NH2.

C6H5NH2 + C6H5SO2Cl C6H5SO2NHC6H5 + HCl

'z' = N-phenylbenzenesulphonamide (alkali-soluble because of the acidic N–H):

Different H atoms:

Ring attached to SO2: ortho, meta, para = 3

Ring attached to N: ortho, meta, para = 3

N–H = 1

Total = 3 + 3 + 1 = 7

Answer: (4)

'A' is a neutral organic compound (M.F. : C8H9ON). On treatment with aqueous Br2/HO , 'A' forms a compound 'B' which is soluble in dilute acid. 'B' on treatment with aqueous NaNO2/HCl (0-5 C) produces a compound 'C' which on treatment with CuCN/NaCN produces 'D'. Hydrolysis of 'D' produces 'E' which is also obtainable from the hydrolysis of 'A'. 'E' on treatment with acidified KMnO4 produces 'F'. 'F' contains two different types of hydrogen atoms. The structure of 'A' is
