Identify product Z in the following sequence of chemical reactions: CH 3 CN → C 2 H 5 OH / Na ( X ) → H 2 O HNO 2 ( Y ) → Strongoxidisingagent [ 0 ] ( Z )
Options
- ACH 3 COOH
- BCH 3 CONH 2
- CCH 3 CN
- DCH 3 COOOH
Correct answer
A. CH 3 COOH
Step-by-step solution
CH 3 CN → reduction Na + C 2 H 5 OH CH 3 CH 2 NH 2 ( x ) → H 2 O HNO 2 CH 3 CH 2 OH ( Y ) → [ 0 ] CH 3 COOH ( Z )
