Q. A compound '$X$' on treatment with $Br_2/NaOH$, provided $C_3H_9N$, which gives positive carbylamine test. Compound 'X' is :

JEE MainJEE Main 2019Amines

Solution:

[X] $\underset{ \text{ Hoff mann's Bromaide degradation}}{\xrightarrow[NaOH]{Br_2}} C_3H_9N \underset{ \text{ Carbylamine Reaction }}{\xrightarrow[KOH]{CHCl_3 }} CH_3CH_2CH_2 - NC$
Thus [X] must be aride with oen carbon more than is amine.
Thus [X] is $CH_3CH_2CH_2CONH_2$
