Which of the following would undergo Hofmann reaction to give a primary amine?
- B \(\mathrm{RCO} \mathrm{NH} \mathrm{CH}_{3}\)
- C \(\mathrm{RCONH}_{2}\)
- D \(R C O O R\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\mathrm{RCONH}_{2}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
In Hofmann bromamide reaction, primary amide reacts with bromine and sodium hydroxide to form isocyanate, which is hydrolysed to give primary amine (with one carbon less) aloner with decarboxylation.
