JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 9. Amines
The number of compounds from the following which can undergo reaction with Br\(_2\)/KOH (alcoholic) to give respective products and these respective products can also be obtained separately by Gabriel phthalimide reaction is :

- A \(5\)
- B \(4\)
- C \(3\)
- D \(6\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The reaction of an amide with \(\text{Br}_2/\text{KOH}\) (alcoholic) is the Hoffmann bromamide degradation reaction. This reaction is specific to primary amides (\(R-\text{CONH}_2\)) and produces primary amines (\(R-\text{NH}_2\)) with one less carbon atom. Among the given…
