Amongst the given set of reactants, the most appropriate for preparing 2° amine is _____.

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

A 1° amine condenses with an aldehyde to give an imine (Schiff base); reduction with H₂/Pt gives a 2° amine cleanly (reductive amination). NH₃ with R—Br over-alkylates; NaCN route gives a 1° amine with one extra carbon; Gabriel synthesis gives only 1° amines.
