Consider the following reaction sequence Choose the correct option regarding the different products obtained in the above reaction sequence.

Options

  1. A' D ' is an alcohol consisting one carbon more than the starting alcohol
  2. BProduct ' B ' is formed via S_ N 2 -pathway
  3. C' C ' is an amine
  4. DAll of the above

Correct answer

D. All of the above

Step-by-step solution

We can see in this reaction sequence that ' D ' is ethyl alcohol which consists of one carbon atom more than methyl alcohol, the starting alcohol. Product ' B ', i.e., CH ₃ CN is a product formed via S_ N 2 pathway on the treatment of CH ₃ Br and KCN . Product ' C ' is ethyl amine formed by the reduction of methyl cyanide.
