Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{CNH}_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{CCONH}_2+\mathrm{Br}_2+4 \mathrm{NaOH} \longrightarrow\) \[ \mathrm{CH}_3 \mathrm{NH}_2+\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{CO}_3+2 \mathrm{NaBr}+2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O} \] (Y) It is Hofmann degradation of primary amides.
