In which of the following reaction, one of the product obtained will give isocynide test?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Question Explanation: The question asks to identify the reactions that produce primary amines.

Concept: This problem is based on standard methods of preparation of primary amines , mainly:

Hofmann bromamide reaction

Reduction of amides

Gabriel phthalimide synthesis

Primary amines obtained from these reactions give a positive carbylamine (isocyanide) test .

Solution: Option (1): Hofmann Bromamide Reaction  

Converts an amide into a primary amine with one carbon less .
