  3. [figure]
  4. CH3CH2CH2-NH2

Answer

(1) [figure]

Solution

(A) gives an alcohol and N2 with nitrous acid ⇒ (A) is a primary aliphatic amine, R-NH2.

Carbylamine reaction: R-NH2 + CHCl3 + 3KOH R-NC + 3KCl + 3H2O

Reduction of the isocyanide (C): R-NC 4[H] R-NH-CH3

∵ The product is isopropylmethylamine, (CH3)2CH-NH-CH3 ⇒ R = isopropyl.

∴ (A) = (CH3)2CH-NH2 (isopropylamine, C3H9N).

Answer: (1)
