Identify the final product (Z) in the following sequence of reactions.

{C}_{6}{H}_{5}COOH\overset{\left(i\right)\text{LiAl}{\text{H}_{4}\left(ii\right)\text{PB}{\text{r}_{3}}{→} \left(X\right)\overset{KCN}{→} \left(Y\right)\overset{LiAl{H}_{4}}{→}\left(Z\right)

Options

  1. AC6H5CH2NH2{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}N{H}_{2}
  2. BC6H5CH2CH2NH2{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}N{H}_{2}
  3. CC6H5CH2CH2CH2NH2{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}N{H}_{2}
  4. DC6H5C∣H−CH3NH2{C}_{6}{H}_{5}\mathop{\mathop{C}_{|}H -}_{C{H}_{3}}N{H}_{2}

Correct answer

B. C6H5CH2CH2NH2{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}N{H}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

This conversion is as follows

C6H5COOH→LiAlH4C6H5CH2OH→PBr3C6H5CH2Br(X)→KCNC6H5CH2CN(Y){C}_{6}{H}_{5}COOH\overset{LiAl{H}_{4}}{→}{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}OH\overset{PB{r}_{3}}{→}\mathop{{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}Br}_{\left(X\right)}\overset{KCN}{→}\mathop{{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}CN}_{\left(Y\right)}

→LiAlH4C6H5CH2CH2NH2Z\overset{LiAl{H}_{4}}{→}\mathop{{C}_{6}{H}_{5}C{H}_{2}C{H}_{2}{NH}_{2}}_{Z}
