How many of the transformation given below would result in aromatic amines?
Correct answer
3
Step-by-step solution
Products in the given reactions are as follows: 1. Hoffmann bromamide degradation is useful in the production of aniline as it converts the - CONH 2 functional group into the - NH 2 group. So, we need to take a starting material that has the - CONH 2 group and after getting converted into - NH 2 group, the molecule obtained is aniline. So, in order to obtain aniline as the final product, we require Benzamide as a starting material. So, in this way, we can easily convert Benzamide to Aniline. 2. Gabriel phthalimide
