Question

Potassium phthalimide reacts with $A$ which on hydrolysis gives isopentyl-amine, what is $A$?

• A. $CH_3 - \overset{\underset{|}{C}H_3}{CH} - CH_2 CH_2Br$
• B. $CH_3 - \overset{\underset{|}{CH_2Br}}{CH} - CH_2CH_2Br$
• C. $CH_3 - \overset{\underset{|}{CH_3}}{CH}- \underset{\overset{|}{Br}}{CH} - CH_3$
• D. $CH_3 - \underset{\overset{|}{B}r}{\overset{\underset{|}{C}H_3}{C}} - CH_2 - CH_3$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

Correct answer is (a) $CH_3 - \overset{\underset{|}{C}H_3}{CH} - CH_2 CH_2Br$
