JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 9. Amines
Which statements are True?
A. In Hoffmann bromamide degradation, \(4\) moles of NaOH and \(2\) moles of Br\(_2\) are consumed per mole of an amide
B. Hoffmann bromamide reaction is not given by alkyl amides.
C. Primary amines can be synthesized by Hoffmann bromamide degradation.
D. Secondary amide on reaction with Br\(_2\) and NaOH will give secondary amine.
E. The by-products of Hoffmann degradation are Na\(_2\)CO\(_3\), NaBr and H\(_2\)O.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A A, C and E only
- B B, C and D only
- C C and E only
- D C, D and E only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) C and E only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The balanced chemical equation for Hoffmann bromamide degradation is: \(\text{R-CONH}_2 + \text{Br}_2 + 4\text{NaOH} \rightarrow \text{R-NH}_2 + \text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3 + 2\text{NaBr} + 2\text{H}_2\text{O}\) Statement A is false because \(1\) mole of \(\text{Br}_2\) and \(4\)…
