Q. Identify the compound X in the following reactions. $CH_3NO_2 \xrightarrow[\text{Excess}]{Cl_2/NaOH} X \xleftarrow{HNO_3}CHCl_3$

Amines

Solution:

$CH_3NO_2 \xrightarrow[\text{Excess}]{Cl_2/NaOH}\underset{\text{chloropicrin(X)}}{CCl_3NO_2}$
$CHCl_3 \xrightarrow[-H_2O]{HNO_3}\underset{\text{(X)}}{CCl_3NO_2}$
