The amine that reacts will Hinsberg's reagent to give an alkali insoluble product is








Options
- A

- B

- C

- D

Correct answer
A. 
Step-by-step solution
Secondary amines on reaction with Hinsberg's reagent (benzene sulphonyl chloride) forms -dialkyl benzene sulphonamide. The product formed is not acidic as no -atom is attached to thus it is insoluble in alkali.
The reaction of amine given in option (1) takes place as follows:


On the other hand, amines react with Hinsberg's reagent to yield -alkyl benzene sulphonamide which is soluble in alkali and amines do not react with . The remaining options contain and amines.
Thus, option (1) is correct.
On the other hand, amines react with Hinsberg's reagent to yield -alkyl benzene sulphonamide which is soluble in alkali and amines do not react with . The remaining options contain and amines.
